after 5 years on my fantastic Avanti Monza, I just upgraded for my upcoming attempts at Long distance triathlons and just paid $8000 (Australian Dollars) for a Guru Carbonio.... yep lots of money, but considering how much I ride, I will get my money back.aa9t8 said:i bought a haro cross country. was 6 months worth of ciggarette money.
I bought the same bike in the spring and love it. It seems to just keep rolling along and once I got used to its shifting patterns as I accellerated, the only limitations seemed to be my own muscles.Mike_Rides_Red said:I bought a Trek 1500 for $1000 a year ago and thought it was a high end bike until i went to my first race. Everyone had bikes $3000 plus and made my bike look low end to all these carbon Beauties. So how much is your bike?

I’m a new registered user so be patient with me. Bought my first racing/touring bike (Fuji) 15+ years ago for around $1200. Rode many years for pleasure and fitness and also rode the Michigan DLMAC quad century five years in a row. Had to stop running (marathons) and biking at 56 due to surgeries. Six years latter everything is OK now and can ride again. Well, I’m 61 now and decided to buy a recumbent this year. Purchased a Tour Easy for $2300 after many trial rides on various recumbent configurations. I know it‘s a lot of money for a bike, but its comfort and quality led me to buy. Been riding again since July this year, but mainly doing commutes for now. Will ride during the winter as weather allows and plan on doing longer tours next year..Mike_Rides_Red said:I bought a Trek 1500 for $1000 a year ago and thought it was a high end bike until i went to my first race.

I hear youkgruell said:I bought a Trek 1500 (2005) in July and love it. I paid about $1100, not including all the extra gear I just had to have! I was riding a circa 1986 10 speed for about a month and finally broke down and coughed up the cash for a new ride. WOW, what a difference too. Nothing like switching from a bike that weighs 35+ pounds to a 20+ pound bike! Hey, anyone interested in a 1986 10 speed?!
