This can work to your advantage if you aren't in too much of a hurry to get the new road bike. I.e. continue to use your hybrid but keep an eye on craigslist and other used bike sites (local swap meets, sales, etc.) for a good used road bike at a bargain price. Then keep both bikes. It's always good to have a spare bike when you're all set to go for a ride and discover a flat tire or other mechanical issue. And you can use the bikes for different functions - the hybrid for rainy rides and utility trips and the road bike for faster, more competitive rides.
