Hi! You answered this perfectly. That "$1.2 million bicycle" is not at all an out-of-pocket figure. I can't even imagine what that would be... the real value includes all the goodies from sponsors, the amazing creations of volunteers, and some abstract notion of the value of the time. I think it came from some interview when the writer insisted on my putting a number on it, and it just stuck... for better or for worse.
