No. Idiot fan with big sign, standing on the edge of the road, mugging for the camera on the motor that was running ahead of the peloton, not looking at the riders. Sign caught the arm of the 3rd guy in the peloton, taking him down, which took down half of the rest of the race.

The Wenatchee solution was pretty awesome though, all orchestras and bands should implement it.

Went to the club ride start today and there were only 5 of us doing a 55 mile ride and 2 others opting for the 25. I think most of the members must be doing remote start rides. I was invited to one of those, a climbing ride in the mountains but I didn't feel up to it.
There is a guy who I haven't seen in over a year who is notorious for blowing up a ride with his flatland speed then leaving to go home. He joined us a few miles in and when he took off, 3 of our group chased after him. Eventually they stopped and we all got back together and the sprint monster stayed with us for the biggest climb of the day. He climbs at my speed (slow) and descends very carefully. I think he's about 6'5" and maybe 240#. He left us on the other side of the hill. I like talking to him because he is an encyclopedia of NBA knowledge.
Anyway we stopped by Griffith Observatory for a quick pic.
