Profound safety problem in elite cycling
"Cycling is a dangerous sport. We can make it safer, but it’ll never be safe," said CPA President Adam Hansen...
"From the track to the boardroom, the lessons are clear—when safety culture is not fundamentally woven into an organisation’s DNA, the ramifications can be catastrophic. "Today what the organisation should know is that it's dangerous and they should think about safety... yeah, just a shame, it affects everybody. All the GC teams went super slow because you couldn't see anything, you couldn't race at 100 per cent... it's just strange that they let us race in the dark like this."
Hansen, talking about the stage two situation at the Vuelta, told Eurosport:"We started negotiations the night before. We asked what was actually happening in the end, and we were shot back. It’s good when the riders take it into their hands and say yesterday was super dangerous, today we want to make it more safe.
He said:"Just by asking if the riders felt safe, watching everything, making sure the finish line is wide enough, checking if there’s enough motorbikes and convoys, if they can get to the front, how can we find better solutions
