Once you have the bike you can spend as much or, as little, as you like, all at once, or slowly in periodic purchases, on all the other stuff.
Factoring in the food eaten as "fuel" for the bicycle is ridiculous, unless food is factored in as "fuel" for the car driver. The car requires 2 fuels; one for the car, one for the driver.
LOL Really? On the other hand - park a $2000 car someplace and when you come back you still have a $2000 car. Park a $2000 bike someplace and when you come back all you have is the key in your pocket!
I` taking a break from all these concerns about my juice intake and going to work. I have a couple bikes still bugging me to buy them expensive excessories.
Something I noticed about aging: Some people lose their looks; some people lose their hair - most people lose their sense of humor. Good thing I didn`t post my ice-cream intake!
