I've just been perusing the prices again (for the 8 day option)....
and wondering how the heck they are justifying a $200 increase per
adult - and for one less day! - even compared to the Great Vic bike
ride. Plus the significant increase for children between 10 and 17.

I'm feeling a bit cheesed off about it!

I've just registered on the BV forum - http://www.bv.com.au/forums/ -
though approval (up to 7 days?!!) is needed to activate it.
*snorts*...
I intend to ask them if they are deliberately trying to price
families out of participating... because that the big question we are
asking ourselves.

I have emailed Bicycle NSW via their Contact form on their website,
asking that question.

Call it Family Bike Riding advocacy. Anyone care to join in asking
questions at least? - to both Bicycle NSW and Bicycle Victoria.
