I am just questioning the effort to verify the monetary award aspects when it’s the least important part of the sport!

Boy, just shows how different things can be read and
perceived differently by different people. I totally read
just the opposite into the article. I got out of it that
the riders do this WITHOUT the aspect of a monetary award
and that is what endurance is about. And I think it is an
important part of the article and needs to be told
factually. The follow ups on this I would think, are to
just get facts straight, so later on, no one can say, yeah,
well, we know Valerie Kanavy got XXX amount once!
Just my .02 worth!!!

anyone recall cash awards in either Endurance or
