How much did I pay, or what is it worth?

[nellie]

hmmm, yeah, ditto on Velourias question.

 

i crashed my bike and the insurance paid out for the frame and a few other odds-n-ends, so my total payment for my current bike was about a R1000 +/-.

Somewhere I read that the estimated value of all the bikes at the Argus is R150 million.

That's an average of R4,285 per bike (using 35,000 entrants only).

[Grapkas]

Does sponsored bikes count?

[Frosty]

Sure, why not?

[bikemonster]

Total value: R3,750,000

 

That's 25,000 bikes (the ones that acshly turn up on the day)...

 

multiplied by the R150 booze 'n drugs money that stolen bikes get sold for.  Yep, even your Scott Addict/Trek Madone/Cervelo R3.
