looking for $1,000 obo.

craigslist listing is here: http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/bik/4785690807.html
obviously asking a bit more on there, but willing to negotiate "bro rate."

I'm looking for a good race bike for me (i'm 5 2).   Does anyone here know about the following brands motobecane and Kestrel. Also what do you think about  Bikes Direct . They seem to have great prices. 
Ingrid, I recognize this largely ignores your question, but don't forget that you get at least a 20% discount on all Giant/Liv bikes! (as of 1/1/2015) http://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-us/bike-finder/women/allcategories/?level=all.  Or 20% off Cannondale at Ride.
Both those brands suck. Don't buy from bikes direct. :)

Don't sugarcoat your thoughts.  Tell it like it is.

Motobecane was a storied French bike company.  Now it's a name affixed to generic carbon bikes sold over the web.

Kestrel produced the first monocoque carbon fiber bike frame way back in 1986.  After lots of missteps, ASI, the parent of Fuji bought the name and now it's pretty much Fuji's tri-bike brand.
Motobicane is almost synonymous now with the least prestigious bikes on the planet; that said I've heard of more than a few people buying bikes the Bikes Direct and parting them out for a small profit.
However Motobecane made the finest mopeds back in the day

Gwynna, I have a case that you could borrow. But it's sort of ginormous. It has casters and a shoulder strap and is pretty easy to manage. I don't think you'd get away with using it as a carry-on though.

@dstokes what models do you have? I have an arione VS on my track bike and hate the cutout.
No cutout. Just the classic Arione.
I think they may have Kium rails.
One has velour stripe as shown below. One has shiny stripe. One has red stripe.

I also have 3 pairs of old Look pedals that I'm more than ready to part with. They are old, older and oldest. They are from before the Keo system was released. I think they may be called Delta. The most recent pair looks something like the picture below. If anyone is interested, they could have them for a song.
