Between a full manual and full automatic is stuff like autofocus and aperture-priority. You could get a Minolta setup with aperture priority pretty cheap - XD11 or X570, plus whatever lenses you were interested in. They're built like tanks and have a world of lenses available to them. I think the

You can consider an aperture-priority film camera. Perhaps something lightweight like a Nikon FE2, so you can leverage a plethora of good F-mount lenses and accessories. A FE2 with a 45mm f/2.8 “pancake” lens will be light and compact, and easy to carry around when biking. A little more
