Originally posted by JPM Problem is for me personally being self employed (I know Tony's gonna come back and say so is he!!!) I'd have to take a day off to travel etc, probably another day (2 half days) to sort bike, load and unload, hire a van blah blah blah.
For me to do a TD in the week effectively costs me the best part of a grand with paying for the TD, van, fuel for van, loss of days pay, wear and tear on bike (tyres, oil etc) fuel for bike, food/drink.
Thus why I am doing as many TD's at weekends this year, they cost a bit more, but that is easy outweighed by not losing a days pay.
So am I!!! (I hate to disappoint!)
And I think my costs are higher than yours
Your sponsor probably helps out though eh?
Doubt I/we would get any sponsorship from the flat cap and whipet brigade Ooooop Nurf!
