RoadBikeReview.com is a good one, as well as its companion site, MTBReview.com. Lots of youngsters over there asking about gear and seeking validation for whatever the last thing they bought at the LBS or off the internet was, but there's some good subforums. I usually hang out in the Commuting Forum at both places.
BikeForums.net is a large site, and folks over there tend to get more than a little blustery and testy. It's not a place to wear your emotions on your jersey sleeve.
BikeJournal.com comes about the closest to the community spirit, without a lot of adolescent testosterone being sprayed about.
Bicycling.com has their "Love" Forum, which is pretty much no holds barred as far as oddness goes. Good (and civil) discussions in the other sub-forums, though.
