This is going to be my first season of cross racing and I was planning on buying a new bike. However, the financial situation has changed a bit so it wont be as easy to do. (Just bought a house)

Right now all I have is a stock single speed bianchi san jose.

What would be more bang for the buck? Upgrading the san jose to make it more race worthy or buying a cheaper cross bike like motobecane or something? Im also keeping my eyes on the used market.

Would it be a bad idea to start off racing single speed?

it's an awesome idea to start off racing single speed. it's an even awesomer idea to keep racing singlespeed.

Racing at all is just craziness, don't see how SS is gonna hurt any worse.
