Wish List
I am very lucky to have a lot of support from Family and Friends, but it is a very expensive sport and being only 13 years old not a lot of funding comes this way.
So this is my wish list and i am saving up all my winnings. In 2013 I was very proud that i managed to put a 3rd of the money towards my new Merida Cyclocross bike. In 2014 out of my winnings i bought some second hand carbon wheels for one of my bikes. so far in 2015 I have bought a new time trial Helmet thanks to birthday money, winnings and good negotiations skills at the London bike show. I have used more of my winnings this year to by a Garmin edge.
At the moment i have now bought / recieved the following:
I am very lucky that I have been able to get everything on my wish list. Though I still have money to pay the bike shop who have kindly allwoed me to have the bike while i wait for funding to hopefully come in to pay the rest. Also the upkeep of all my bikes and equiptment have ongoing costs.
Spare wheels for my Cyclocross
bikes
New race helmets as my 2 are old and need replacing
Spare wheels / Tyres/ Inner tubes/ clothing kit/ helmets/ socks/ mits/ energy gels/ protein drinks
Approx £2 - £200
This sort of thing is always in need. For any of the 6 bicycles i own. I need to have a spare set of wheels per bike, a at least 1 pair of spare tyres per bike and probably millions of inner tubes/or upkeep of tubless tyres.
