Getting ready but not sure of which direction to go in. I've decided I would like a bike but not sure of getting a road bike or a fitness bike. I first started thinking fitness (Trek 7.3FX) but have noticed that most start this way but end up getting or wanting a roadie...I hate to spend the money since I've already went from looking at the 7.2fx to now the 7.3fx! at the price of a new Trek, I could probably get an entry level road bike...

any opinions or experiences are greatly appreciated...(the last time I bought a new bike was back in the late 70's and it was a 10sp Raleigh)

Thanks
