Agreed.
As stupid as it was, not nice hearing organisers to come out saying they are going to sue. Particularly as UCI and other organisers levels of negligence have been far greater at times.
GoatandTricycle-
What else are they (UCI) supposed to do? Give them a good talking to?
Because currently relying on the good sense of spectators doesn’t seem to be ensuring the safety of the riders. And they can’t police every km of road, so how else do you try and deter this sort of thing.Personally I doubt suing this fan will come to much but if the thought of it stops another fan from trying to get on camera as the peloton comes past, or causes another fan with more sense to get them out of the way, then maybe it is worth it.

Gotta feel for the spectator who took everyone down. Proper game over moment. How do you recover from that?
Gotta feel for the spectator in blue who got piledrived by several riders in the second crash.
