I love bike racing!
A 105 CAAD10 with Ultegra wheels and Conti GP4000 tires was good enough for me to easily upgrade from Cat 4 to Cat 3 and then upgrade to Cat 2 (with much more difficulty). In other words, you don't need a really fancy bike to start racing. If you're starting out, you just want to race lots. Try different things. Try spending lots of time in the front. Try sitting in and being patient. Try taking a solo flyer off the front. Observe the pack dynamics. Learn how to approach and take corners in a pack without shedding all your speed, or crashing, or causing others to crash. Learn how to move around in a large pack. That's a start.
