Default Relatively new rider but looking to race

I was hoping to find some guidance on what to do in preparation for road racing. I have been riding about a year and a half now and now have an opportunity to race with my university. I would love to talk with some of you 'out there' who have experience racing and wouldn't mind sharing some of your insight. Unfortunately most of the racers I have met here men and women alike have been put off by me I guess so I never ask them about the sport. I'm discovering that cycling can be very clicky? I've been doing training rides as much as time permits. I live in the midwest so the weather right now it getting nasty. I do have rollers and am slowly getting used to them. So.... any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I think you might be better off asking this question on either the training board or the road racing board. There's not a lot of traffic through here.

Cheers,
