Even I'm tired of the CAAD9 obsession, and I have one (and won on it).
That said, I've been thinking about whether to buy a new bike in 2010, and it doesn't make sense. If the CAAD9 got me to Cat 3, it can get me to Cat 2, and if it does that I think it can take me to Cat 1 if I've got the legs.

screw a caad 9. personally, i love it when i see cat 5's riding Pina Dogmas with Zipp wheels. it's such a confident "f-ck the world, this is what i want, who cares what you think" statement.
ride on, and buy the new bike!

One of my teammates made it to Cat 2 and is reasonably successful racing P/1/2 with a BD Moto. A Caad 9 with 105 would be a huge upgrade for him. The bike means a little, but the engine and control tower mean a lot more.
