Hi all,

I'm cycling a 4 stage alpine challenge in september this year and want to get a new road bike for it. I've got a budget of £1000 for the bike and i'm looking for something that's going to be good on the climbs. my current bike is a raleigh 100 which i bought a couple of years back. It's been fantastic to me, taking it on a lejog as well as edinburgh to london and back again but I think i'm going to need something a bit better and lighter for the alps. Has anyone got any opinions or recommendations?

cheers
