SAFETY PLANNING AND EXECUTION
IN PROFFESIONAL CYCLING
Together we can make the sport safe and better.
How does it work?
Ready to ramp up the safety at your cycling event? Let’s break down how we make it happen. Our process is all about getting to know your race inside-out and creating a custom safety game plan that fits just right. Here’s a snapshot of the steps we take to turn your event into a safe, smooth-riding experience:
Crash Database
We collect and analyze crash data from races, identifying trends and improving safety strategies. This vital resource guides our approach to enhancing event safety.
The Riders
We actively engage with riders to discuss safety, gathering their insights for our database. In 2024 alone, we’ve connected with over 200 professional riders, integrating their valuable feedback into our safety planning.
Data Collection
Our ongoing data collection covers various race aspects, helping us build a comprehensive knowledge base. We share these insights across the cycling community, promoting a culture of shared safety awareness and improvement.
Step 1: Documentation and route
We begin by partnering with you to access the race route and gather necessary information. This stage is key for open communication, understanding your specific needs, and discussing the course’s safety aspects.
Step 2: Course evaluation and risk analysis
Our team performs a evaluation of the course, identifying potential hazards. This analysis is pivotal in understanding the unique safety challenges your event may face.
Step 3: Safety Planning
Based on our findings, we develop a customized safety plan. This plan addresses the identified risks and outlines strategies for emergency response, safety equipment, and communication.
Step 4: Safe Score and inputs from stakeholders
We implement a ‘Safe Score’ system to evaluate safety levels. We actively seek input from key stakeholders, including race organizers and, importantly, riders, to ensure a well-rounded safety strategy.
Step 5: Execution
While we offer full execution of the safety plan, including deploying our own equipment and personnel, you have the flexibility to use your own resources. Our focus is on providing guidance and support to ensure the highest safety standards, whether you choose to implement the plan with your team or ours.
Step 6: Post-event safety debrief
Following the event, we conduct a comprehensive debrief, analyzing the effectiveness of the safety strategies and gathering feedback from all parties involved. This is essential for continuous improvement and future collaboration.
