For $10,000 even you could have had a limited edition Giant Tour de France TCR a year ago. A local shop (name withheld) had one of only a handful in the nation.
I was told by an employee it was sold to a bike fan named Robin in California...no joke.
Or, how about a limited edition Colnago C50 Ferrari....? Only $7,500, so you could get a second wheelset (Campy Hyperons) to make up the difference ($2,500).
For the tandem folks, a custom sized carbon Calfee Tetra / Tetra with Dura Ace will set you back around $9,500. Spend the other $500 on Assos Ti shorts and a wool jersey.
Ah, to dream...

i'd spend 3k on a bike and 7k on living expenses for a few summer months so i could ride it all day without going to work.

That said playing along with the game at hand - I will take one of these https://www.competitivecyclist.com/za...PRODUCT.ID=132
