So I've been getting into mountain biking for a few months now and really enjoy it. I am interested in getting a road bike, and would like some advice.
I am quite fit and live in a mountainous area, and would definitely consider getting into racing once I git gud enough. Group riding seems fun as a counterpart to my solo mountain biking, and my uni has a cycling team which would be good to join.
The temptation to buy a shiny new bike is strong as I bought an 8 year old MTB, and I am attracted to the Cannondale CAAD8 Sora. I like the appearance and Cannondale as a brand over many others. It also seems like a good choice if I decide to race. Is this a smart move, or might I be better off waiting and trying to find a year or two old CAAD8?
