Ride Log
One of the things on my 'bicycle things to do' list is to keep a ride log. Alot of other people do it so I thought I should too. The table below is my log.
OK so the cost methodology is this - trips I would usually take via public transport are assigned a rounded off public transport cost ($2 for one zone), and trips I would normally use the car for are going to be calculated and rounded on 12 km per litre of diesel which is around what my 4x4 uses.
I took my Mongoose BMX off the list because most of the trips I use it for are about 4kms. Then I rode it in to the Brisbane on 29 August and back, and have decided that I definately want to sell it.
Giant CRX2 (Leela)
Bought this bike for $950 in...2007? It's well and truly amortized! The parts previously replaced: chain, rear brake pads, front brake caliper, all cables, handlebar grips, tyres
