Cyclists out there?

I've been thinking a lot about what I will do when I meet my weight-loss goals. One of my goals - to lose 100lbs - will put me at a weight where I think I can trade in my current heavy steel-frame bike for a lighter, faster, aluminium bike.

It'll take a year so I have plenty of time to save for it. I want something that is versatile and can handle a little off-road, but not a mountain bike.

My current ride is a Raleigh Detour

And this has me sitting in a more upright position. I'm wanting to get in more of a "saddle above the handlebars" position on my next bike.

Any thoughts on something I can drool over and put on my dream board?
