Bike advice for college

[Samcansnowboard]

I’m heading to college and deciding which bike to take—or whether to sell and buy a new one. One college is flat with roads, smooth walkways, and brick walkways, while the other has roads, stairs, and a mix of smooth, brick, wood walkways. I have a 2004 Trek OCLV 5500 (road bike) and a Jamis Trail X3 (mountain bike).





I love the road bike , so if I attend the flatter school, I’ll take the Trek, which is in great shape. While on the other hand, the Jamis is in decent shape but it needs new grips and a tune-up. If I go to school 1 should I fix up the Jamis or sell both bikes to buy a new mountain bike, and it’s the same fillers for school 2.

How far is the commute and what is the storage/security going to be?

I’d be on campus but for college one I’d say probably 5+ miles a day and college two I’d say probably 3. Whatever I have is going on my dorm and I’m going to have a good lock for whenever I’m not riding it.
