Having a Bicycle is Expensive

Well other week some twat decided to try cut through my bike lock. They didn’t succeed but they got half way through so I had to go out and buy another. Anyway new lock £30. Also I had bought a new bike tire pump for £20 and now it’s been stolen, so another £20 to replace it. I was hit by a van driver the other day on my bike as he pulled out without looking. Don’t worry I wasn’t injured but he has slightly buckled my back wheel. Cost to replace that I’m not sure but looking at £ 30+. Also both my front and back tires have gone brittle as my bike was stored outside for several months while I was in college. To replace them plus new inner tubes cost £45. Also because I was using my bike a lot I needed new seat for comfort, cost £40. Well that covers all the expenses. A grand total of £185 in a month, I could run a car on that amount of money in a month.
