  • £200, not including inner tubes which takes the total up to about 280

    80 quid on tubes=enviro criminal

  • £5-6,000

    Half my wages for the year?
    That turbo is now £50.

  • More than my wife knows.

  • GRand on tatoos? You now head to toe?

    I wish.
    Got a few bits and bobs earlier in the year and now I'v started a sleeve and have paid for about 6 hours work thats not been done yet. I like paying for my appointments in advance but it just means that everytime I'm in there i feel like I'v not spent anything and book another 3 or 4 hours.

  • less than I spent on women

  • 80 quid on tubes=enviro criminal

    I patched them all extensively as well, blame the shitty streets of London tahn

  • All pinch flats from hitting the kerb.

  • 'bout £500?
    However, drinking has consumed all the money saved for wheel-builds and new forks for this year. So it's not even nearly enough.

  • lol £5 -£6,000 - Muppet! prob still faster on my £400 ride.

    Is it a London Langster?

  • £5-6,000

    +1

    sold more than I've bought so i'm in the minuses..

    +1

    I try to be sensible about it.

    Even if it means buying that good inexpensive part, cleaning and then reselling it for two or three times the cost.

    Then I can spurge on want I really want without breaking the bank.

    But all my bikes this year still cost less than the wife's shoes.

  • about 1/3rd of the money I'd have otherwise spent tubing it into work

  • Not terrible in comparison to some people! Over a k though. And If we include things like trips to Paris for polo...

  • All pinch flats from hitting the kerb.

    Gah! you are truly insufferable sometimes! ;)

  • less than hippy

    I hear that, however Gf wanted Mulbeey bag for christmas, told her she could have one if I got frame for same price, ends up she won't be getting a bag. Now I won't be getting new Mercian.. : ( just have to buy one on the sly,,,

  • Gah! you are truly insufferable sometimes! ;)

    Pretty much all the time when you get to know me.

  • less than hippy

    Yeah but he's Australian, what's will's excuse (I suppose he could qualify as Northern?)

  • More than Hippy and Dancing James combined.

  • i spent like £1800 but i had a gear bike before and thats not in so around £2500

    plus i jus crashed my bike so need a new frame . . . 3Rensho on the way . . .

  • Georama dead?

  • £30, but I am now bikeless.

  • some big spenders in these parts (except for maybe moog)

  • i bought my 2009 purchases in 2008. do they count?

    if so <£1500.

    I feel dirty.

  • i don't and can't measure bikes in sterling. or even guinness for that matter.
