I have up to £600 to spend on a new road bike and need some advice on what to actually buy,
Initial choices are Trek 1000, Cannondale R500 or maybe Guess RB1.
I have not seen any reviews of these bikes so any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers Tim

At that price the Cannondale will have most of the money spent on the frame. If you want to upgrade later it's a good bet, otherwise the other bikes should have better components.

It's always the way with Cannondales unless you spend shedloads of money. But the frames are very good indeed.
