CAAD 7 stiffness question

I sold my Paramount, have not ridden in a year plus... been working consultant biz for the BP oil spill all summer - all office and getting tired, fat, and winded easily - prime time for a heart attack.

Anyway, found a R2000 with a CAAD 7 frame all Ultegra with Kyserium SL's and was wondering if its too aggressive for someone getting back in. What I hear is the Cannondale CAAD frames are very stiff. Since I rode in Delaware, Philly, and Jax all my roadie life (flat roads) and the North Georgia hills are daunting and think that the aggressive frame would be a good trade-off for it's climbing abilities. Not looking to compete any time this year, just want to ease back into.
