Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

Cycling. I started with a bike that was given to me by my uncle. Now I have a road bike, full equipment x3, a direct drive trainer for the rainy days and a subscription to use that.

Don't say that, I am now making my bike.

Have a few components but it will be gravel/touring bike.

It’s a great hobby, you’ll get healthier and have lot’s of fun. Good luck with your new bike!

I know, I have basic aluminium frame tracking bike but I am upgrading to steel frame gravel.

When I look back the frame was probably more expensive than my current bike ;-)
