I tell myself someday I will enter a crit. Who knows if I actually will.

I do at least one century a year.

Then either one would be fine. But the Litespeed is better equipped at a better price.

Are you implying those of us who like nice bikes for cheap are snobs?

I believe I will get a great bike but will procure it for half the price the rest could obtain it for.

Just to make it clear: I am not the one leveling the accusations.
But imagine, all that money just to get dropped like a bad habbit by the young guys. That must be rough.

At least I show up.

Showing up wins eighty percent of the battles.

I buy value. I don't spend money.
