300km a day for 18 days is hardly a plod like.
I did that for 21 days across the USA and I'm an alcoholic that weighs 2 x Lachies on a good day. :D
There's nothing wrong with it. I think what people don't like is the marketing machine behind it. No one has mentioned the guy that rode all three of this year's grand tours and the transfers...

Great idea for a ride, made loads of money for a cool charity and something else to follow along while the tour's on.
Dunno why folk are so determined to find something wrong with this.
