What is your preference on brand? Trek, Cannondale, Specialized, etc?

I'm looking for a good entry level road bike.

Depends, how much do you want to spend?

http://www.roadbikereview.com/ Shop the hot deals.

Actually, before you do ANYTHING - go to your local bike shop and get fitted.

I've done this and have road a few different bikes/brands. I know which one I like but I want to hear what others had to say.

My budget has drastically increased, but the more it increases the longer it will be until I can make the purchase.

Absolutely. Don't buy brand, buy fit.

For the record, I bought a Felt. It fit me the best.

I'm so jealous. But like others have said, buy fit not brand.

Do you have a local bike show you can go to? I found the best deals at the spring bicycle show.

I ride an old school, snoop style bike with a banana seat. It's my pit bike.

This is mine. Exactly. Well, minus 4 years and mine is creamsicle orange.
