Just for fun, take a look at the Bianchi Brava, too. That was my first road bike.

I'm another Trek 1000 rider. It's my first road bike (bought this past summer), and after riding hybrids since I was 9, well, what do you expect?! I like it!
There are some drawbacks that have been mentioned here already. As to the fit, I am riding the standard 1000, but my LBS did switch out the stem for a shorter one. The stock bike might need some modifications to truely fit, but I think that could be true for any bike.
If you have the oportunity to do so, look at other bikes as well. I and my LBS wouldn't have known I needed a shorter stem if I hadn't test ridden a few other bikes. Plus, I like my bike, but you may find a different bike is better for you.
