The thing that I think is crazy is how little prize money is involved for the
winners and the riders on the podium. These guys are insanely talented and
deserve way more in terms of $$$'s. There is more $$$'s for the winner of the
Odlum Brown Tennis Tournament which is embarassing. Whistler, Tourism BC etc.
should BUCK up some more $$$'s for these athletes. First place should get
$100,00, second should get $50,000 and third place should take home $25,000.
With the current prize money, the third place guy can hardly buy the first
round of drinks at the bar.
