Aussie Saray Roy being pressure washed by a mechanic after the race is a favourite.

On the topic of prize money for Women..... in cycling, where does the proze money come from... I presume not ticket sales? Is it from sponsors? If that is the case, I presume sponsors are spending more money where the exposure is more. Can we as the viewing public show more support for Women's cycling to give the sponsors more exposure so they allocate more money?
