Subject: Cycling Addiction: Road Bike Recommendations?
Even though I still enjoy triathlons, I kind of have a dirty secret in that the group rides of cycling has been a surprising thrill for me this year. I'm looking to get a road bike just to enjoy the group rides and probably look to use the road bike for my general rides (some racing, but not much). What recommendations are there that have a good value for a road bike? I'm looking for something similar to what the Cervelo Dual is to Triathlon, a great value bike for a decent price...

I just picked up a Scott Speedster S1 on clearance for almost exactly what I paid for my Dual and love it.  Here is the link to the Speedster S10 (the 06 model), but the specs appear to be the same, except the 06 appears to be a bit heavier (?).  It has Ultegra 10, weighs in just over 17.5 lbs, and is an overall awesome ride.
