So..... cycling

Kate, I just spent £400 on a 10 (ok almost) year old bike

Depending on the bike etc... they hold their value very well! I doubt an employer would be in the position to monetise them though, but bike trail centres would love these (probably unused, if slightly forgotten about) beauties. They'd fix them right up, as would I (and Jonny!)!

Anyways i'm not really trying to argue, as tbh i've never been employed by a real company that would offer such thing for starters!

I've just read across bike forums about people being very wary of it, and these are guys that are happily willing to pay the big money on carbon unicorns etc...

I'm sure it will work out as millions of people have used it and there isn't enough disdain on the internet to argue it's a useless scheme. But i'd be very wary personally!
