Hi everyone. My name is Q, I'm 17 and I live about an half hour south of Chicago. Just yesterday I recieved my first road bike and today I rode for a couple hours and I loved every minute of it. I have been biking (moutain) for a little while but I really want to get into serious racing. Can any of you help me out by telling some things I need to know about multi-stage/day races and single day races. I thank all of you in advance!!!!
