List:
1. Spray down the chain with WD40
2. Check wheels to see if they move freely
3. Check crank to see if it moves freely
4. Check handlebars (steering) to see if it moves back and forth.
5. Squeeze the brake levers and calipers to see if they move freely.
6. Attempt to remove the seat and seat post fro its tube.
7. Spray chain again with WD40.
8. Check back here with progress .

Wheels, handle bars, and crank move fine. The brakes move and stop on the front only the back won't budge. The seat came out after a fight with my dad (we greased it and put it back in). The chain is frozen in many places (we wd-40'ed it 3-4 times) and the shifter cables on one side are rusted. Soooo, yah I have a lot of work to do. as it is now i have to do some research and the bike is in the shed instead of behind it. sorry I got defensive before.

OH! and I live in North Carolina just below Raleigh. I'm going to school in Greenville (ECU). Also I already am looking into painting any exposed rusted metal.
