So how many vets do you need to do 500 bikes :-)

I am curious. Organized bike rides for $20 and you get:

t-shirt
all the water and gatorade you could want at multiple rest stops
all the snacks, energy bars and fruit you could want at rest stops
If you want to stop or if you are having any problems you turn your bike
over and trucks come by and help you out througout the day
A meal at completion
A free massage at completion.


All this for $20. Now, what I am thinking though is that there are also
upwards of 100 riders, in this particular case 500 riders. Is THAT what
makes it so inexpensive? So if a Endurance ride could consistently have
hundreds of riders maybe they too would be less expensive?
