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

Everything is relative. That may be true for you, and I respect your opinion.

My first road bike was a MB Record as well back in '05. Got about 2K flawless miles out of it before selling it and upgrading. Have fun with it.
