Done 17000k PBP included. Good was lightness, Bad was vibration from front, even with 25c tyres, making hands numb. Want disc brakes & Di gears, for improvements and told after steel, titanium best for long rides, plus weight benefits.
Think view of LEL 'just a bike ride' somewhat flippant, if not derogatory to those who have entered, finished, volunteered and organised, but on the other hand your right! The PBP was the long way round the velodrome.

T42.. Thanks...The Trek domane looks a good alternative to compare.
