I have no road bike knowledge, except that they are expensive, and I don't like to spend money.

"We went out with a plan to bring the race down to sprint finish. We did a great job of covering breaks, working the front and making sure nothing went up the road. Several very hard attacks all came back together, and the team moved to the front for the last two miles. My team put me into a position to take the fastest wheel on the finishing straight; clear wheels across the finish line with no one even close. This is teamwork at it's finest. I love it when a plan comes together."
