Need help picking out an entry level USED road bike

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Thank you
Ended up with this one for $300. Thank you all!

Thanks!

Now have a long way to go learning to ride it! (Scared out of my mind, actually). Such a huge difference from my comfort bike. I feel like I'm going to kiss the ground every second. I should go dig up my kids knee and elbow pads...
