This. Don't race, don't have gels. I'm all about a long day in the saddle, many miles, much slowness, take in the view. Carry mixed seeds, apricot halves, water, and find a nice tea shop mid way for sarnies, cake (decent carrot/lemon drizzle if available), and a nice mug of tea.
Gels are the devils work!
Fuck gels for anything other than racing
