Study Abroad what to ride?

I am going to be studying abroad this fall in Rome. I don’t want to mess with shipping my P3 over there and don’t have a roadie, so I trying to think up options on how the heck I am going to train over there. My thoughts right now I might just be running a lot and trying to buy a cheap bike over there to keep my legs somewhat in shape. Anyone have any ideas for me?

Thanks

maybe not the fastest ride but at least you could get the training in.

When in Rome…

You can get a sora equipped road bike for under 300 euro, it will make you appreciate your P3 more when you get home but will be a good way of keeping some cycling fitness (and transport and maybe seeing some countryside).
