Just the clarify - the first time I posted it, I hadn't done the 'figgering' quite right. After I talked to her again, I found out more about how they were doing it. They won't be doing 400km a day, it'll be 250km a day, and yes, they are fully supported of course.

First off, they will be stopping at every cancer hospital along the way and meeting kids so in some areas of Canada, there will be a lot of hospitals and a lot of stops. I believe in these sections, they will ride about 250 km a day, together in a peleton. In the more isolated areas with fewer hospitals, they will ride relay style - half will ride 5 hours, be driven ahead to the next stop and rest 5 hours, while the other half takes over. It certainly will be an interesting challenge. In every interview I've seen, the riders say that even if it's very difficult for them, it's harder for kids with cancer. I found the videos very touching.

I'll keep you posted on her progress.
