So my $300 Diamondback hybrid just ain't cutting it. It was probably the right decision at the time, given that I wasn't sure that I'd actually keep with it, and wasn't sure what kind of riding I'd end up doing, but in the next few weeks I'm planning on graduating to an actual decent road bike.
I'm thinking something in the $800 price range, from what I've looked at so far. Something good for long rides (did a 50 mile ride today, plan on longer as I get into better shape.) So far I'm thinking along the lines of a Specialized Allez or Sequoia, Trek 1.2, etc.
Any thoughts? I'll be making the decision with the help of a bike shop, but looking for input on things I might not think of.
And I'll probably have a MTB finding quest in my future, too.
