On the mountain summits the crowd dictate where the side of the road is. If the riders move to the middle the crowd follow them. [/QUOTE]well, imo opinion it shouldn't be allowed. They need to get more security along the route, if that's possible (financially). It's dangerous, for both the spectators and the cyclers. When i'm in a stadium, and i have the nerves to step on the pitch, the police will beat me up. Fans don't belong on the playground, it's bound to go wrong sooner or later.
