Controls are fine if you miss the bulge (which by definition most people don't).
Basically PBP is designed for the 80 hour riders and everyone else comes second, so the nearer you are to the front, the better the controls will be. You'll hit the bulge coming back, but it will only be a few hours - one or two busy controls.

I get the part about the history, but the thought of doing an audax with potentially 5000+ other riders is what fills me with dread tbh, by all accounts it sounds like maximum faff at the controls.
Plus LEL seems like the better fit for me if I were going to go for a 600k+ audax...
We'll see come Feb, I guess! It could be a 'sign up and worry about the details later' kind of ride.
