The "racers" feel that the "tour" riders are given priority, and the opposite is felt by the tour riders. Both are right, and both are wrong. And as for having to eat standing up, at least you get to eat which is something that many of the locals don't get to do... not trying to be harsh, but everything should be put in perspective! In six months, after you've finished the tour, you will absolutely not give a damn. However, if you pack up and leave now, you will regret it for the rest of your life!

In six months, after you’ve finished the tour, you will absolutely not give a damn. However, if you pack up and leave now, you will regret it for the rest of your life!
