Another week, another piece of Super-Twattery by Reform's pet simpleton Lee Anderthal, whose latest “I wunt are cuntry bak” video illustrates the “Industrial Revolution” with a clip of sturdy working-class chaps building Model T Fords, for a racist and anti-semite.  At his factory in Highland Park.  Michigan.  USAnia.

First Bryan for me.... let's talk about food.
I got around LEL and PBP because of the availability of HOT and quick food.
(Actually not so quick on PBP but that's for another day)

To the people with experience (!) what did you eat? garages? Greg's?! where, what, when? all the details please!
This is a make or break factor for me.
Thanks a lot in advance

I'm not riding this year, and haven't ridden the event for over a decade, but looking at the route I'd say it all hinges on your speed and whether you attempt the ride without a sleep stop. If you do then the garage in Newtown is what you need to know about.

If you do sleep, then I'd be eating at Menai and picking up some food to eat on the bike on the return loop south of Barmouth.

Otherwise you pass through plenty of towns with cafés and shops.

I need to go and measure my current secateurs to decide which size Okatsune to get (I'm assuming the small), but they're in the shed and it's raining.

I knew it was a thing, but yesterday was the first time I'd seen someone hoovering their Shit Lawn (plastic). Ghastly stuff.

Yesterday, being a Saturday, I saw not a few people down on their knees by the gutter, scraping out the crack between kerb and pavement with a miniature scraping implement. Because today, of course, is Sunday.

Alsace does retain a lot of Germanic habits. Or maybe just manic.  Having spent my formative years in French France, I couldn't be arsed.

Pingu did a whole pile of that on the path outside the sheds at the previous Pingu Towers before we sold it. Not a fun job.

Peter Hook never looks cool. He just looks like a twat. Probably because he is a twat.....
My SO has met him and confirms this.

Sorry for thread necromancy.

I rather think you're right...
Well, new tube acquired and fitted. No obvious reason for the puncture found. It was a sidewall job, so probably acquired down a bridleway I use. It has rather shattered my faith in Slime tubes though, as it wasn't a large hole. Bearing Kim's point, I've kept the valve gunk-free and will have a spare tube now. However, puncture patches located, but can I find the glue? No.
