Razzy Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 My good old paper round and christmas money got me my bike, but my main source of income was selling chocolate at school. I was making about £5 a day until some other guy selling sweets got threatened with a 3 day exclusion. I thought that i best quit while i was ahead, as i had just got enough for my bike and I couldn't be bothered with it any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's well helpful!.... - Why reply with that?....I built mine up over the years, when i was at college i used to save then i started full time work. Along comes all the latest stuff!!... woohoo!Bout as useful as this topic is. People work, get given birthday and christmas money and thats how they afford their bike, same as all their other stuff. Theres only 3 different answers really.Job, birthday/christmas money.Pro rider being sponsored.Stealing your current bike.What other answers was he expecting really?
