i feel the same way. I will pay good money to do a ride that is well planned and supported. I have done many rides that require minimum fund raising as well and they always seem less organized and more push on the funds. I think because these are not run by cyclists but rather people with a purpose. Nothing wrong with that I just won’t ride those anymore.
