    Ah Tunney is just trying to get an argument going ;)

    As long as these sell out in 3-4 hours, they are a commercial company and they will charge whatever they think they can get.

    There will eventually be a price point where they hit a ceiling but it doesn't seem to have hit yet

    Why?

    A standard Olympic in Ireland costs you €60.

    Alot of these give you no goodie bag.
    Alot of these give you no race t-shirt.
    Alot of these have no post race food.
    Most of these have no transition security.
    Most of these have very little medical crews.
    Water safety is weak in alot of these.
    There are no aid stations on the bike and run.
    There is no on course mechanical assistance.
    There are feck all motor bike marshals.
    There is no pasta party.
    There is no post race party with free beer.
    They are over in 2-3 hours rather than 9-17.

    IYO €450 is good value for money then?

    I don't see the correlation between what you pay for a standard Oly in Ire has anything to do with IMDOT 140.6's
