Spend Your Money on You
When you cycle you don't spend money on road tax, MOT, or fuel, just the odd sweet bar or treat to give you the energy needed, that you then burn off. Repairing and maintaining your bike is pretty cheap and you can always do it yourself. If you cycle regularly you'll save yourself a fortune, so take your bike on your next trip and there'll be more cash to spend on the finer things in life, like you!
The energy equivalent of a single litre of petrol will allow you to travel 650 miles on a bike saving you money to spend on more interesting items
You'll only spend about £75 a year on maintenance, less if you do it yourself, but bike shops are so handy, and some even come to you
