Hi Bill, welcome to the team here! That's awesome that you are looking to get a bike! If you haven't been riding in awhile I would recommend starting with something in this vein: http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/town/fitness/models
There are a variety of models here and you'll get the skinny tires and low rolling resistance combined with the more comfortable upright position. Find your local shop and go test ride a few bikes and see what feels "right" for you! Feel free to stop back with any questions, bikes or otherwise!
