If you want to play with RISC-V hardware right now, I highly recommend taking a look at the Sipeed MAIX [1]. It has a bunch of neat features along with a dedicated RISC-V processor, for a considerably lower price (~$35 if my memory is correct). I've received a M1w, which is working quite well. The campaign has ended but it seems you can get the hardware on external retailers, however I cannot vouch for these [2]. They also have a Telegram chat where the developers of the product talk quite a bit, and if you ever have any questions they're quite responsive and helpful.

As an additional insight: this is an offspring of one of the developers of mining hardware, Canaan. They have released the chip right before their anticipated IPO: https://coingeek.com/crypto-miner-maker-canaan-eyes-going-pu...
