Different strokes for different folks.
We did ALPI4000 quite comfortably, stopping for photos and the lovely scenery etc. while other people raced it to be first back. UK audax, I've been guilty of doing that, but it's because I was using audaxes as training rides for races and I've seen quite enough of the UK, presumably, as has this guy.

I have never ridden LEL but I'm pretty confident you don't need that fucking bike. Why make an amazing long distance event perfect for slow rolling frankenbikes int0 £9000 aero broleur shit. I'm sure that Matthew is a great guy and strong rider and all but c'mon. One of the great things about audax is that you don't need an aspirational bike.
