I would blow it all on an awesome trip to somewhere exotic. I've always wanted to go to Indonesia, Cambodia and maybe India..?
I'm not sensible enough to spend it on something useful like uni or deposits for houses.

I'm spending it on this! :biggrin:

That's a sick bike, you massive git.

I'd like to say I'd spend it on something productive, but to be honest I'm a man of few needs so I'd probably go travelling.

That or I'd spend it all on drugs and parties and be in rehab within a couple of months. I know myself quite well, this seems the more likely scenario :o:

you might as well go into the right type of biking

Road biking? No mate, I'll stick with more... Adrenaline infused, biking. :wink:

I've done road to increase my base stamina and leg muscles. If it wasn't for those two benefits, I wouldn't have gone near it.

Its not fast, its not hard, there's no level of skill other then being able to ride a bike...

Either way, that's just my opinion. Cheers, but I'll stick with MTB, FR and DH.

Getting me out of overdraft and saving the remainder so I don't get in such a situation again.

I was looking at one of those the other day. They don't appeal to me at all.

The suspension's to bulky, the frame's too compact and high.

No doubt, it'd be one ****-off DH bike. But that's all it'd be able to do, and I intend to use mine as a free-ride and all mountain too.

I'd buy myself a ridiculously high-spec laptop and then save whatever was left over.
Not bad, not bad at all.

I'd probably by a new bike, or a new car. But I'd probably dump it into my ISA.

I dunno why people think spending loads on a bike is a waste of money, the physical product is only a small part of it. It's all the mental **** that you can do on it, that's what you pay for :confused:. It's like travelling, you don't spend all that money on plane tickets so you can have a nice comfy ride and overpriced drinks.
Buy my provisional drivers license and driving lessons and buy an ipod touch. So that in total is what, 600pounds. Then just save the rest :smile:

Ohh and a new laptop :smile:
