What about this one guys? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Peugeot-Festina-Road-Bike-/111145682333?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item19e0cc859d
i have some woods near me and they have a path but it's not exactly smooth as a road.
they can also get muddy and bumpy in a lot of places and i would need to be able to stop quickly should something or someone pop up from nowhere.
would this type of bike be suitable or would i need a "mountain" bike?
no.. no space for fatter tires, those frames will fit 28c max..
mtb/hybrid/CX is the only option in that case.. and trust me I did try riding my roadie over mud, dirt etc and its not a fun experience

I contacted the guy about the single gear bike and it comes with brakes if needed so that is good for me.
If I wanted £15 delivery UPS but I can get the train to London for £15 on the weekend and see what configuration I want at the shop.
If I don't get this single gear bike and see nothing on eBay I most likely save up to £300 and buy a new geared bike and be done with it.
Thanks.
is there a similar really cheap bang for buck decent bike for cheap money for my needs?
most of it is smooth path through the woods with some dodgy bits here and there, so i don't need a brilliant expensive one
