I'm thinking of looking for my first road bike and I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I'd like something that I can go and have fun on for a day but also something I could some light touring and wet weather mucking about with. So far what's come to mind is the surly long haul trucker and the Genesis Croix De Fer (did I see somewhere that there was a 853 version? Google isn't much help and I love my 853 Donohue). Anything else to look at? At the moment I'm just looking for a frameset.
