Should I buy a bike?

There is a bike shop in Evanston that sells good refurbished used bikes - I don’t remember the name but my S bought a used bike there freshman year. I would recommend waiting until you get to campus to decide whether or not a bike makes sense for you. My S used his bike a lot first quarter freshman year, not so much after that (snow can make riding a bike challenging) and not at all after freshman year.
