Just a few months ago I decided to buy a piece of shit bike just for some exercise and picked up a $100 Wal-Mart special. The thing is fucking incredible! I really can't tell the difference between the two. And if this one gets stolen, oh well...

true, i've had cheap bikes for exercise only for years and walmart bikes are ok, as soon as you wear off the 2nd rear tire the chain and sprockets need replacing so you put it out with the weekly garbage and they take it away.
on my 3rd $89 mountain bike now---also they work ok indoors in the winter on the bike trainer. easy way to keep the belly flat, i do 30 minutes every day (8 miles)
best mooch deal i found on a road bike recently is here:
