I know I'll be the minority here, but I've been pretty happy with every road bike I've owned. Its mostly the comparison to what other people are riding that makes me unhappy with it--it bugs me when other people have aero or lightweight **** that makes it harder for me than it is for them. I remember in college, one of the private Universities bought a size run of Trek Speed Concept TT bikes to loan out to their team and they dominated the time trials because we were all running CAAD7s and 8s with clip-ons and open pros. I suspect this is what led to collegiate cycling banning TT bikes, but that was after I was already done with school.
I'd be 100% okay with a well fitting steel or aluminum frame with box section wheels and sensible tires if that's what everyone else had and it didn't put me at a disadvantage in a group setting.
