OT: road bikes

Howdy folks. The wife and I are gonna do one of these 100 mile charity rides in the fall. Right now I've only got a mountain bike, so I'm in the market for a road bike. I'd be willing to spend up to $1,500, but would of course be happier finding something I like for $1,000.
I tried out a Trek 2100 (63 cm size $1,420), seemed nice. I haven't ridden a road bike in a long time, so I don't have too much to go on. My mountain bike is a Giant that I've been very happy with, so I've got to get around to trying them out too. I have heard that taller riders, I'm 6'3", can have trouble with the compact frame Giant uses. Any thoughts? Thanks,
jeff
