Re: [Great Canadian Bicycle Tours] Tour for Kids

Yea I was going to say it might be a bit challanging for a 10yr old. :-
) There are minimume funraising commitments. If you click on 'ride
options' on the left and the 'more details' by the listed ride options
you will see them. They range from a registration fee of $65 + $250
fund raising for one day up to a registration fee of $200 + $750
fundrasing commitment for the 4 day tour. Considering they provide
all the food, gatoraid, powerbars etc you can eat I thought it seemed
pretty reasonable. (and the 4 day epic riders got a pretty nice gift
bag with 2 very nice cycling shirts amoung other things)

Yea I rode the whole 4 day tour last year. The challange of going
that far in 4 days was quite a thrill. Being such a good cause was an
added bonus. the best part is when you cross the finish line each day
and all the camp kids and workers give you a big cheer.
