Need help! Will this be a good road bike for a complete beginner?
I don't have a road bike before.
On a budget, finding a decent bike that's capable enough to participate races
Components : Shimano Viagra
Also appreciate if any recommendations are given
Yes.
Tiagra groupset got a redesign fairly recently too, it's basically a slightly heavier 105 now.

I loled. xD
Shimano TIAGRA. Smack your phone for the autocowreck.
Yes, that's a perfectly good beginners road bike. Can't really go wrong. Take good care of it and it'll serve you well.

Everyone else has already said it, but yeah
The Allez bikes are great because they're really good all around general purpose road bikes, they're fun and sporty, and don't try to be commuter.
Half the people I work with at the bike shop i'm at have started on an allez.

Perfect bike. Like my brethren above said. Your capabilities in a race are dependent on the motor. Eat well, train, rest, and repeat
