    You need to learn how to ride a bike before you race.

    That is false. For example, in women's racing, there have been quite a
    few novice riders who have done quite well in their first year and
    whose bike handling skills were mediocre. For example, I would like to
    do a survey of the top 100 women racers in the US to find out how many
    of them can ride no hands.

    Your question is like a high school dropout bum who walks into Harvard
    Admissions Office and asks, "How do I apply to get accepted here."

    I know for a fact that a graduate student in mathematics at Harvard did
    not know how
    to tie his shoes. He got his Ph.D. at 20.

    My cycling shoes have velcro. I don't get your point.
