Overview
Safety is the top priority. Plan routes that ride smoothly, avoid conflict points, and keep finishes predictable.
Good segment choices
- Wide shoulders or bike lanes
- Clear sightlines and low-speed crossings
- Climbs or steady false flats (avoid sharp descents)
Avoid these pitfalls
- Finishes at stop signs, traffic lights, or driveways
- Blind corners or narrow bridges
- High-speed descents leading into busy areas
Rider reminders
Tell riders to follow local traffic laws, yield when needed, and ride single file where space is tight.
