Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Yes, that's a good point that's getting lost in all the chatter and non-constructive innuendo.

The Cannondale CAAD8 comes with the Claris all the way to the 105 groupset. So for $800 you can get a really nice frame (smooth welds, asymmetric chain stays etc.) that you can upgrade.
