New to forum and road bike too
Live in Pembroke Pines FL, bought a 2013 caad10 ultegra 3 weeks ago and due to my job (race motorcycles) I've only done 6 rides with the bike since I got it. Bought it for training purpose and so far loving every min of it. Can't wait to be able to have a good avg speed and pace.

Enjoy it.
Takes awhile to get into max shape for pedaling.
Ask questions if you need help.
We have a training forum.

Race you? I don't think I'm at that level yet, I've only manage to ride the bike 6 times in total, the last 2 being 40 miles each and just avg 18.5-19 mph so definitely need more practice lol
