Grr, he must be thoroughly over punctures. Is this a problem with the Glyde's tyres particularly, or one he would have faced on any similar form of transport? Or just a by-product of covering so many miles?

I'm not sure - from what he's said, it seems to be by-product of using cyclepaths, which accumulate crap in a way that roads don't - one thing to be said for cars is that their wheels sweep the debris to the side of the road pretty well. Usually if you get a trike puncture on the road, it's in the left front wheel and means you've been riding too close to the gutter, where the detritus collects. On a cyclepath, the stuff tends more to stay where it falls, so the punctures can happen in any of the wheels :-(
