I think the difference is in self awareness. If you spend all the $$$ for all the high end stuff, and do it becuase you
a. can easily afford it
b. just like to have it
c. need it to feel important
All the while accepting your own performance limits..I'd Say OCP
Now, If you have all the $$$ stuff, and think it makes you:
a. a racer
b. faster
c. a better rider than you really are
I'd say Fred.
