I'm in the UK at the moment and a couple of weeks ago I spent a Saturday working on the Ride London Womens race in Epping, Essex, north east of London.
The company my son works for was responsible for all the barriers and advertising, direction & distance signs, the start/finish line and the Sprint & Queen of the Mountains (in Essex??) lines.
We installed in the morning, watched the race and then de-rigged late afternoon. It was great fun with reasonable weather. We had a combination of lots of friendly, interested locals and a few peanuts. The biggest issue really was the intolerance of the majority of car drivers, but I won’t go into that. “Haters gonna hate” and all that.
Sadly we had to clear the road of drawing pins at one point, but regardless of that the race itself went well.
Start / Finish
Road Crew
I set up the QOM point
Another one for the collection :-)
Not everyone likes cycling :-(
