Money spent on unicycles

I'm a copy cat with these counting threads, but who cares they are fun and interesting. In this one you type how much you have spent on unicycles, not exact if you don't want, but just try and get a close amount, then add it to the running total. I think it will end up more than 500 million dollars, if everyone posts.

$118.00 (will double in about a week though)

Total:
1 rider
$118.00

This is my first post to the forum ... so, be patient with me. I have been reading for a while, but I am just now beginning to post.

I just started riding last fall (about November) my collection is as follows:

1 Coker (with cable brake) $425
1 Nimbus 29in $230
1 Nimbus 24in $225
1 Torker 24in DX $190
1 Torker 20in DX $229
1 Qu-Ax 24in Muni $615 (w/ brake and air saddle)

I have also given away:
1 Torker CX 24in $85
1 Sun 20in $90

So, in total I am one rider with 6 unis and total dollars spent $2089 --- I love this sport!!!!

This makes 4 riders with a total so far of $4228.
