I find dedicated road bikes to be a bit too twitchy when riding anything other than open roads or tracks. Kinda overly responsive.
Carbon would be nice but I don't want to drop $2+k
A Cyclocross bike would probably be best but again, don't want to drop so much money on it.
It's difficult, I want to do long road work but there's lots of nice light trails near me that I don't want to miss out on.
What's the bike on your avatar?
