You're value of good might differ a lot from mine. I don't mind shit conditions or annoyance, but not when I'm paying through the fucking nose for it.

GWR (and LNER) are much worse than they used to be. Cos no guards van and the hitachi "bike spaces" are a joke: you need to hang the bike, tyres >35c don't fit, deep section (>45mm rims) don't fit. If you have wide bars and someone else is there you won't fit even if you have a space booked. Etc, ad nauseam.

Haven't done an Audax for ~7 years so I don't really take bikes on trains any more (apart from commuting bike at pissed'o'clock when too hammered to ride home sensibly) but for all of the Audax riding I used to do I think I only had one or two non-good experiences in 60+ return train journeys. Even then the only problems were minor shit like the bike spaces were full despite having a reservation but guard used common sense and still let me get on the train.
