Slyvain Chavenel $1 million
Christian Vande Velde $500,000 (someone is getting a big raise soon)
Average support rider: $200,000- $300,000 (but as little as $45k)
Pay for top 3 finishing riders of TdF will be about half what Armstrong, Basso and Ulrich made in 2005.
Average budget for top-pro cycling team: $15M - $23M (with 60-80% going to riders)

CSC does not pay rider bonuses for winning a stage or tour. (Others pay $50,000 or up to $1 million for winning the Tour)
TdF pays the winner $700,000 (it is usually split among the team)
(Not much, but cycling tours don't have ticket sales to support payouts.)

The bmx company wethepeople
Apollo bmx bikes are not the best, but if you're just starting off they're ok. However, if you're at a decent level of bmx and you have the money, you might want to go for a wethepeople, hoffman, mongoose, archos, mafia, haro, or even make your own custom bmx
There is defiantly money in BMX from sponsor's, competitions etc. But to be able to do this you must be EXTREMELY good at BMX.
No single answer, depends on how much money you want to spend and what kind of riding you want to do.
