Looking to spend 1000-1500 for a good bike (spending account ftw!), any recommendations?

I am biased to Ridley's. They are an awesome shop. They spare you the pretentious BS bike shop attitude. They sell you what you need, not the most expensive thing they think you can afford. Plus you won't find better value than Trek, which is their main line. Trek always seems to get you into one groupo up, on the boutique brands, at the same price. Ask for Travis, he is the store manager, and he will probably give you a discount if you are doing the Enbridge ride.
I might just have a bike for you though, depending on your height. PM me for details.
