Can understand the complaints, especially in some of the smaller villages post feed-stop. As much as there may be the ocassional drunken screaming and shouting, I would imagine it would be rare in such remote places.
My experience of this ride was that everyone was very respectful while riding, even as part of a small pack, no shouting (unless someone was riding like a tosser). However, when stopped (usually just at junctions) there was certainly some talking. Maybe a solution would be designated stop areas for groups of say 3+? Just enroute - for example, contacting a couple of pubs who might let us use their car parks, or beer gardens - looking at village greens away from houses etc? These could be every 10 miles or so and lit with the fabled tea lights?
