Thanks for the kind response HatBeard. Sounds like the right sort of bike for me - though this one in particular is already sitting at £230 and I'm guessing will go for way more than that (and way more than it's actually worth).
Once I'm sorted with a bike I'll definitely head down for drinks. I've got a few good mates really into their biking (though mostly MTB) so will have them to rely on for the maintenance / repair / upgrade side of things too.
