firehawk 0 Posted July 25, 2011 Now I've bought my bike, I've decided to document the cost of everything I do to it in a spreadsheet. Is this just sad and pointless or will it be a good thing when it comes to selling it on some time in the future? It's handy for me because I then know how much money I've wasted.
