Ideas for COMFORTABLE road bikes?

Be nice to the newbie. I got back into cycling last year with a hybrid comfort bike, since I have some joint issues (wrist and ankles especially) that caused me mucho pain on my old mountain bike.

Now I've lost weight, added muscle, and seem to have strengthened my joints a little, and want to get onto a much faster bike I can ride for leisure and triathlons and centuries.

I've done a lot of searching on here and can't seem to find an appropriate thread, so I though I'd ask for ideas on what kind of road bike might fit me. I';m a 6'1" 230 pound rider. Weight is not as critical as comfort, so I'm looking for bikes with some sort of vibration dampening geometry or whatever I can find to make my ride more comfy. All help appreciated.
