Evans Cycles Sportive RideIt! Hampshire
Our final Sportive of the year! Heading out from our base in South Basingstoke, within a couple of minutes you are into the countryside and away from the traffic. Passing RAF Odiham you then turn South and skirt around the edges of the South Downs before heading back to the event centre. As it’s December we won’t be making you climb mountains or freewheel down long, cold descents. The course is “undulating” with the long coming in at a reasonable 4600ft, and mainly on good sized roads.

Exactly, and while that might be bad for the bike manufacturing/selling industry, it doesn't automatically correlate to a problem for the cycling...
The Road.cc journo has definitely passed his "find interesting things to say about a very boring product" test!
No idea whether the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth is being conveyed in this particular instance but I do recall standing...
What's relevant probably depends on the individual's use case....
'should' these days - only the MUSTs and MUST NOTs are shouted.
Rose-tinted glasses are also good for this.
At last a light worthy of the hack reviewer's cliché, "pumps out the lumens."
Thats not a defence (ironically). Everyone is paid to do their job. Some peoples job is to destroy the environment and ruin the future of billions...
