Will you race with a "lousy" bike?
Hi people,
let's imagine the scenario: you are planning to take part in a race (any kind, be it time trials, crits etc). you have been training for it pretty diligently. A day just before the race, you suddenly notice your race bike has some alarming issues that definitely cant be solved in time for that race (insert your choice of disaster here). what you are left with is your commuter bike. Sure, it is a road bike and all, but is it a very low end one, probably only one or two notches above wal-mart bikes.
what will you do? race the race with the commuter bike?
