How many pennies per mile...

I'm just curious as to how cost effective most of us are. What's the current cost of your bike per mile (km) that you have on it?

Example: My current ride has about 7100 miles and paid $750 for it (BD bike) plus about $50 for a different saddle, new brake cable, bar tape, etc. Excluding the cost of tires and tubes, that comes out to about $0.11 (US) per mile.

I'm sure some of you veteran tourers have done far better.
