Well I am not sure that's what has been said..... it is all down to timing!
When I did mine I made sure to get to JOG and LE during opening hours.
St David's is a bit of an anomaly, which may prove a problem if not pre-checked prior to your ride attempt.
I got there at around 22:00hrs so had several options, but fortunately the Lloyds ATM was in service.
There are other sources of receipts, but they should be checked before turning up and hoping for the best.
As with LE and JOG, some premises may have widely differing opening hours outside the tourist season.
Check, not just by looking on Google, but by calling your potential receipt sources!
Fuel may also be a challenge.... I have recently been thwarted by several Tesco 24hr sites which were closed, despite the website saying they were open!
Caveat viator!
If it's any help I plan my ride route in Tyre, using Google to find fuel stations first... the tyre app gives me mileages and times between points and these are put into a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet can be used to check approximate times by entering a start time at the top of one of the columns and having entered all the sector times and mileages with cumulative time and mileage, simply changing the start time alters all the results to give me the time at the relevant stops....
