I am 16 and need a road bike for building up my fitness as I live on country roads and im sick of going too slow on my £200 hardtail mountain bike and I am bored of travelling to trails. I was thinking of buying the Specialized Allez 27 '09 - £579.95 and I am willing to spend up to £1000, but would rather spend less. I was wondering if anyone has any idea of better bikes in the price range, considering it will be in daily use doing about 5 miles at a fast pace in all weather?
 
well u cant ride a road bike on dirt roads or in all weather,if u want that you can get a cyclocros bike(it can be used for trails and every thing it has knoby tires)
