What Are The Dangers Of Riding In A Peloton?
When cyclists ride in a large group or "peloton," they can save energy by drafting off of the rider in front of them. However, this can also be dangerous because if the lead rider slows down or makes a sudden stop, the riders behind them can crash into them. Additionally, riders in a peloton can collide with each other if they make sudden movements or if someone swerves into another rider's path.
