How much would you spend on a new bike ?

[jayonabike]

Well I didn't win the lottery but I did get a bit of an inheritance which paid for this

The P.P.I claim paid for this

0% Finance paid for this

My wages paid for this

(Any excuse to show off my bikes)

jayonabike...that's a pretty impressive bike display...whats the combined value of this little goldmine?

 

[jayonabike]

Quite a bit.......

Do what I did, tell her you are getting a bonus but expecting it to be really small, so you are going use it for some cycling gear. Bought my Sirrus that way

We shouldn't have to lie to buy a bike.

Your hedge could do with a trim in a few places, couple of straggly bits knocking about...

just kidding, lovely bike collection

It was done tongue in cheek with our lass, she is usually fine with my spending

There would be no thought to the price tag, that wouldn't interest me.

I have often been called a charity case

A big lottery win could certainly be used to rescue a lot of greyhounds!

I would support research into Parkinson's Disease (my mum suffered from it), arthritis (my dad was crippled by it and I show early signs) and (for obvious reasons!) blood clotting disorders and treatments.

PS I still fancy a good cyclocross bike, but I think about £2,500 would be the most I would want to spend.

Money no object i'd obviously buy whatever I liked the look of at any price.

As it stands though I'm liking the thought of a Canyon as my next bike. Would probably spend 2.5k and would want Di2. Better start saving as the odds of me winning the lottery are not great!

I've just found out I've made bonus at work for last year. The only problem is that the wife says I must sell one bike before I can get another (I've only got 3) and I want to get another 2!

I think if you change faith you can have as many wives as you want . Or have I got the wrong end of the stick here ?

I would spend £3200 on a Cervelo S3 and maybe some carbon wheels

She's just taken a payoff - looks like I'm on for bike number 4!

As I wouldn't have to work and therefore would be spending a lot of time on the bike, I definitely would be spending a few grand... After buying my narrowboat
