I'm sure that this ride is very important to you emotionally so I dont want to put down what you are doing but the overhead on these types of events tend to be quite high.

The fundraising arm of the ride is the Alberta Cancer Foundation which spends $33 to raise $100. Its one of the higher overhead numbers out there and if the goal is fighting cancer and providing treatment a direct donation to the Tom Baker Cancer Center is more effective.
