Most expensive race ever?

Not factoring in rip-offs for kiddie races ala Redlands [$10 for 1/2 block], I believe we are going
to fortunate here along the Colorado Front Range to be blessed with quite possibly the most
expensive race ever in terms of $ per length. A local group here in Boulder is putting on a 1k
hillclimb TT and charging a mere $14 for the pleasure. To make matters even worse, the hill itself
climbs for a total of 2k which would help matters some but for whatever reason the promoter has
opted for only 1/2 the distance. I've only been doing this racket for about 10 years but this is by
far the most expensive race I've ever come across. Anybody else ever come across anything worse?

For the record, I will be bypassing this event. Nice hill, good for doing repeats on, but $14 for
maybe 3 minutes worth of work? No.

 

This was the most $ per length I could find. ? Women 30-34 500m Time Trial ................$25 $40
if you register late
