I'm looking to buy a bike for casual off-road riding (dirt roads, distance
riding) to improve physical fitness. I wont be trail riding or doing any
stunts. I'm looking for a large frame, sturdy bike as I'm a large frame guy
(6'2" 300lbs). What are some decent suggestions in my price range of
$3-400? I'm new to all this and haven't had a bike since I was much younger
(and lighter!). Thanks in advance.

Buy used. Any new bike in the $300-$400 range will not even stand up
to casual riding for a guy your size.
