I might suggest going with a used bike first. You should be able to get a decent used bike for $250. If you find you totally love it, you can upgrade your bike then. But if you find you are just riding around town, or find hardcore mountain biking a little rough, you haven't spent a whole boatload of money.

Its too late. I would have loved to spend only $250. The problem is - I'm a sucker for technology and a $250 bike doesn't have cool things like vented disc brakes! But what I didn't anticipate is spending any more than say $4,000. I'm way over that already.
