watch out for 22 bikers trying to get from Ushuaia to Alaska in 2 months

Today I entered to Tiera del Fuego. As I get off the ferry I see 2 bikers from UK. They told me they are part of a group of 22 bikers going to Alaska in only 2 months. Then I see a trailers full of tires and realized they paid for a organized tour. How much$$??? I'd like to know. I came all the way from Canada on the bike, did it in 6 months, and it felt to me I was rushing at the end.

At the hostel at night, met 2 cyclists that met the group at their first night out of Ushuaia. They told me the group was a week late on schedule due to some delays getting the bikes from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia by plane. They saw a cruiser, women sitting on the back of a few bikes and described them to appear as "normal" people. I mean they were not atheletes that done it before and now trying to beat a personnal record, no, just normal Joes with apparently more money than common sense.

A cruiser can do it, 2 up no problem, normals Joes can do that trip, but in only 2 months?? Why?? They won't make friends or see anything what's the point? Why not just do a smaler portion in 2 months? What's the company from UK selling these tours?

anyway it blows my mind I thought I had to share this.
