Why would you do this?

"The bike brand is "Pinerillo" it looks about 15-20 years old (steel), i'm not sure of the model but it is a track bike. Is this possible? Are there kits out there? I already drilled holes for the brakes but I can't figure out the gears. Thanks!"

Did I understand him correctly? He put holes in a track bike, a Pinerillo track bike, so he can turn it into a road bike? Why would you do this? He could easily get a nice cheap bike for the same, if not less, amount of money. Why can't people just do more research and stop messing up their own stuff. I think I'd tackle someone if I saw them drilling holes into a italian track bike. Oh well, it's his bike and he's free to do as he pleases, it just a shame a bike is ruined in the process.
