Bring plenty of snacks and water and don’t worry too much about a miles long desperate search before finding a porta potty. Having a perfectly crafted gravel bike with plush 40mm tires ensured I skimmed along at a roadworthy pace. After 4 hours of gravel grinding without once turning on a blinking light I must have crossed paths with about a dozen other folks, I was wearing my blue Rapha buff, everyone was wiithout masks and all gave me the same dirty look I got when I rode without a face covering around here.
