"Consider adding a handlebar vertical extension so you can get the weight off your hands and rest your back and neck.
Besides, a big "front bubble" can make pedalling and breathing more difficult if you're bending over to reach the bars."
This, also, from www.crazyguyonabike.com - Murray Snyder.
Thanks, Murray.
I always use high handle bars so I can look around, hoping for a good photo, and needing to keep the weight off my back and neck.
I see that Murray has his handle bars covered in thick padding, so will also look into getting that done for next year's tours, as long as I can still keep the bike light-weight for those few times when I might have to lift it over obstacles like fences and logs/fallen trees.
