• What other blindingly obvious potential hazards should be spelled out for people who fail to do any research?

    "you may encounter potholes"
    "you may experience traffic"
    "packets of nuts may contain nuts"

  • "you may experience traffic"

    Isn't this pretty much one of the warnings given?

    On the topic I'd have thought bear spray would be pretty handy for such scenarios,
    although the electric thing sounds perhaps better.

  • Oh yeah, some riders take sprays with them. Wasp spray, bear spray, etc.

  • No, they have specific road warnings for roads reported by local riders as being busy/possibly dangerous. It's kinda silly because it entirely depends when you're on the roads in question but presumably it covers the race orgs somewhat.

    If someone needs to be told about obvious cycling hazards they shouldn't be doing the TCR.
