In Ontario, Canada the club just charges 80$ a year, that includes 40$ insurance that all cycling clubs have to use. Most of the rides are completely unsupported aside from getting a brevet card and a cuesheet/gps file. There's usually places to stop along the way but a lot of small towns are dwindling so a few routes are run with a support car at the controls for water but it all depends on someone volunteering, we don't charge an entry fee for those rides, but it's rarely more than a dozen people on those rides. On a longer brevet riders would split the cost of gas/rooms for someone doing multi-day support/bag drops but again, that's usually just a few riders. The Granite Anvil 1200 is ran like most other North American 1200s with full hotel rooms and bag drops, looking forward and hoping we can have it in 2022, it was supposed to be this year but we're still in a quasi-lockdown here and haven't had any official brevets yet this year... soon hopefully!
