Congrats. Clearly I think you made the right choice. But seriously, if you are going to have just one bike and it is mainly going to be used on road then there is no reason to get a bike with suspension. Heck even my MTB is full rigid and I have no problems hauling butt over terribly rooted or rocky terrain...you just have to learn the proper technique which is noodle arms and a VERY light grip on the bars.
