Have you explored Divvy bike share? A yearly membership is $100, they have electric bikes (if going far distances) and all responsibility is gone once you lock it up!

It’s my go to after my last bike was stolen on day 2

Consider used bikes too! A lot of people get hooked & upgrade their perfectly good bike for carbon or electronic shifting & there are some good deals to be had.

Also sales at REI! I got my fat tire bike for shockingly cheap during the pandemic when everyone wanted a bike. Granted I’m short & it’s a “mens” bike…still very helpful people work there & might have suggestions.

Personally a fan of single speeds since they are cheap, easy to care for, and there are basically no hills in Chicago.

How do I get a job as a Mechanical Engineer if I dont have experience?

I couldn’t get an internship while in school. I have a BS in ME and projects from school under my belt. I’ve also passed the FE exam. I’ve been mostly just doing CAD for a company for the last year by creating minimally dimensioned drawings and moving parts around in assemblies. I want to evolve in my career and be doing more. I worked so hard to earn my degree and I feel like I’m not even using it. But who will hire me?
