Loony and I were talking tonight about this.
People need to be very cognizant of the value of this...
$960 for two days, and even if the math / hours work out exactly to the schedule, that's 14 total riding sessions (barring no accidents, crash truck, etc)...
$960 / 14 sessions; that's over $68 / session
14 sessions = 280 minutes; almost $3.50 / minute
280 minutes / hours, that's 4 hours 40 minutes; that's over $208 / hour
All this with no real hands-on Expert Instruction.
Then of course, travel gas, bike prep, overnight accomodations, etc.
For those that are not racing, and have that extra expense, sure, it's a Bucket List item to do!
...Since 2013 will be another race year for me, I'll have to pass, even if I have to wait a few years to do this, and the price will hopefully come down!
