Many years ago when I was in college, I used to race criteriums and would practice in the local cemetery.....If a service was going on, or if I saw anyone other than the grounds crew, I simpy went to the other side of the property out of respect. While riding, if a funeral procession entered the gates, and I couldn't easily slip away without being noticed, I would stop riding, get off the bike, and bow my head as they passed near me. Again, simply a gesture out of repect for the family.
