But as I use all this gear for other rides, camping and life too, can't really count it all as race expense. And you have to eat at home too. So it's mostly just the race entry, flights, hotels. And indeed I mostly sleep out.
Taking my bike on the flight to Burgas cost 119€ and now for the train I'm in, I had to put the bike in a box and still the conductor is saying it's not allowed and I should pay a fine of 50€.
My thin packable rain jacket is now done and I sould buy something new. Maybe a new one of the same or maybe a Rab Downpour or something.
