It's been almost 20 years since I bought my road bike and it's time for a new ride! My Cannondale, a 1986 62cm Criterium SR600 with the Ultegra of the day (and biopace chainrings which have since been replaced with round) is getting tired. Replacement parts are hard to find and I'm told that even Cannondales (CAAD7) with carbon forks have made great strides in smoothing the road. My question is what to get, considering my riding style. I'm a strong recreational rider. I'll do a few races this year of 50 or 60 miles and a few charity centuries - and all the training miles that make these possible. I enjoy hills - the steeper the better - and weigh in at 183 - height is 6'2". The new bike will have the 04 Dura Ace 10 - prob 12/25. Beyond this I'm somewhat at a loss - slightly overwhelmed by all the info out there! I'll be spending 3-5K on this and want to get something light, fast, comfortable on long new england rides, firm enough for steep climbing (I'm entering Mt Washington hill climb), and something that won't fracture in a basic fall like Lances Trek in stage 15. All ideas are appreciated, thanks!
