To be honest, I don't think I've actually spent a great deal on cycling, other than the initial cost of the bike. I was giving the cycling clothes for my birthday from a friend who was trying to get me into the sport, as they said that it was something that I would enjoy - which I now agree with, of course. So I didn't have to pay anything at all for that. I cycle all around my home town and surrounding countryside, which is free. So to be honest, I know that a lot of people say that the spend huge amounts of money on their cycling, but this just isn't something that I have found to be a problem at all in my own experience.
