Cycling is expensive

As your enthusiasm grows you will find your current bike also decreases in
it's effectiveness as you are exposed to the advertising blurb for all those
shiny new machines. Oh and then you'll need a mountain bike and fixed gear
for the winter, something ultra light for the summer, all the latest us
postal kit, clipless pedals, ultegra upgrade for the road bike. Cheap? No
but what else do you spend your money on?

Since I recently started cycling to work more frequently than I used
to, I have discovered that I can no longer wear a certain pair of
jeans without a belt to hold them up!

So buy one out of the bus fares you've saved, you cheapskate!

Certainly not on bikes or cycling. 🙂
