I'd like to get some advice from you bike gurus here. I'm thinking of getting a bike since gas is getting expensive. As a poor college student, I think a bike is good since I use my car mainly for getting groceries or getting takeout close by.
I live in a fairly suburban/rural area but the getting around with a bike isn't much of a problem. I don't really have space in my apartment for a full size bike and one of my roommates is a little picky about putting things in their place and cleanliness. So I was thinking about getting a folding bike and just keeping it in my room or some place out of the way on the balcony. Again, I'd just be using it to go buy groceries or take out which is no more than a mile or so to and back. I can go down to campus too which would be about 2-3 miles to and back. Not sure about going on the sidewalk but I think going on the road would be fine. I'm not gonna be going off road or anything like that either.

This is what I was thinking of getting.. Cheap but good I suppose. I was thinking of a Dahon but they're very expensive if I'm gonna get a multispeed. What do you guys think? Thanks!
