Gregory,
No, persona intelligenta. Keep thinking! These are good
points.
However, I think you have given a great answer -- the $47.00=20
is going to be way down in the noise of the cost of the trip.
Unfortunately we have not come up with a way to get
free food, lodging, or gasoline for entrants. =20
Do you think that $453 is a lot more easy to swallow than $500?
And if you do two sectors or more, the $47.00 truly disappears.
Further, at 35 cents a mile wear and tear, the "real" price
is going to be much higher. Anyone contemplating a trip like this
has to budget for this sort of cost...don't they? I suppose camping
is an option, but you still have fuel costs...This will definitely be =
cheap
by comparison to the Copperstate or other "Classic Rallyes". =20
But you can't travel for 5 days without paying.

I seriously doubt that anyone is going to be willing to pay $47 plus =
$27 for the privilege of driving public roads, but I may be proved =
wrong. This has to be added to hotel costs, food costs, and in my =
sector, ferry costs, and ABFM entry fees. This means that anyone wanting =
to do the Victoria-Vancouver sector (and registering late, thus =
incurring the $27 courier fee) will spend an absolute minimum of $500 =
for this sector; if he/she continues to the next sector the registration =
cost will be spread between the two sectors, but food, accomodation and =
other costs continue. This whole thing is starting to look very, very =
expensive for the average potential participant. Still, I may be being =
wildly pessimistic. I hope so, given all the time that has gone into =
this. We are doing our best here to whip up enthusiasm, but the =
registration / courier fees won't help. I suppose I have made myself =
(once again) persona non grata.=20

It covers the cost of couriering the late registrations to the SC =
where the registrant starts (i.e. a separate package for late =
registrants, by overnight courier). Cost could be as high as $50 if it =
is to go to Florida, or as little as $10 to go to Toronto, so I picked a =
likely average (note risk here!).
