Keefer said in the podcast he spent 6k in entry fees/gas/hotels/flights but if he had to buy his own parts/bikes/gear it would be closer to 10.
My questions is, who says "Fuck it. I don't ride but I'll go buy a bike and gear just so I can try and qualify for Loretta's."

Before you ever think about going to Loretta's odds are you probably already have a bike, gear and have raced a little so you already have those things.

Closer to 20.! A set up 450 is 10 grand all by itself.

If your riding at a high level your going to be going through at least a bike a year anyways, so your correct as you probably have a bike in the garage and could just chance it and not get a fresh one. But from my experience if your going all out, committing time and effort to do some big races you need to start with a new or near new bike so you don't have issues. That's why I see it as part of the cost.
