What about a U-Turn, and how would the biker, having just come off a fast downhill, be able to do the 50,000 computations the people in this thread think he should have made? LOL! Many of the racers are beginners, which is why safety is paramount, but even an experienced cyclist can make a bad judgement given 5 seconds and the effort of a race. Some of you act as though you can't remember what it's like to race.... To the guy who said the race director should be flogged, I agree.

Yes, cycling is sooooo complicated. 5 seconds is wayyyyyyy to little time to react. Or at least so says the 7-time vehicular collision survivor.
