Welcome aboard, time to roll out my standard advice on buying a bike. Decide a budget, not forgetting the extras such as lights, mudguards etc, find a good local bike shop (LBS) and ask them to show you all the bikes in your price range. Test ride as many bikes as you can, think about which one felt the best to ride and buy that one, probably not to buy on the first day, give your self sometime to think about it. If the bike shop won't let take the bike outside for a test ride, walk away and never go back.
