Another newbie

Anyway, on the lookout for a 2nd hand C2 and will take it from there. There are a couple around for circa £700 (UK) that have less than 100k on them. Just annoyed I didn't get one originally as I may struggle to find another mug like me to take this Maxxus off my hands....! Thanks again.

100k is literally nothing. You can expect to get many millions of metres out of it, and I think mine is on circa 14 million without needing anything other than an occasional lube of the chain and a hoover of the fan when and cage.

You'll struggle to find many products that are better value for money...as long as you keep using it. Even if you don't, you'll probably sell it for a similar amount.

The C2 is tremendous value for money. When you consider what you can spend on other pieces of cardio equipment/road bikes etc, it's a bit of a no brainer.

I thought of starting to run regularly, but then switched to the rower, as it is not weather dependent.
Even a new rower is cheaper than new running shoes over time, if you put in a sufficient amount of mileage. For me 2500k/year would mean 2 pairs of shoes at around 80-100€, so after 5-6 years I would have paid the price of a new rower for shoes.
And many say running does not cost anything and is the cheapest sport.

Excellent point.
