First Expensive Bike Purchase.
I'm new to cycling and have been riding an old 75' motobecane super mirage. Once I get enough money, I'm looking to upgrade to a better bike. I found a Cannondale Six Carbon 6 with 105 components and carbon frame and fork for 1000 bucks. I'm looking for a bike to do a couple of races in, training, and some tours here and there. What do people think of the six for my situation?

Is the Cannondale your only choice? Have you been to your LBS at all?

I'm guessing its not brand new at that price.
Just make sure it hasn't tumbled and cracked anywhere.
