I think I've decided to go with the 2006 Trek 2200. I road a bunch of different bikes and I seem to like this one the best. I considered the 2005 Trek 2300, but I don't think the price difference is worth it. My only concern is Trek for some reason decided to go with 9 speed Ultegra instead of 10 speed. Anyone know why?
This is mostly for exercise, but I plan on doing some racing next spring and summer. I figure if I need to, I can upgrade to 10 speed later on. I also plan on upgrading to the Bontrager Race X Lite wheels.
The 2200 looks to be Trek's top alloy for 2006. It does have some carbon parts. I can't afford full carbon right now.
My second choice would probably be the Felt F65, but it just didn't feel as comfortable. The Felt seems really nice though.
Here are the specs:

Anyone have any thoughts?
