get a 32 spoke rear wheel and get out there and ride.
See if your LBS has last year's model or used bikes that fit you as that will save you a ton.
I like this info. 250 ain't nothing on a road bike. The lowest I've been on a road bike is 252, with the highest being around 325.
These bikes are a lot stronger than company attorneys and Internet chicken littles would have you believe.
Find one you like when you test ride it, buy it and ride the sheeot out of it
