Former British rider David Millar believes the best way to increase safety in cycling is to treat it in a similar way to how doping was treated during the latter half of his career - to create a culture of respect and self-policing and empower riders to call out others who put the peloton at risk.
The Scotsman, who spoke to Cyclingnews following the closure of his clothing brand CHPT3, praised the UCI's work, describing it as a thankless task. He's also optimistic about the newly introduced yellow card system, which punishes riders who put the safety of the peloton at risk and can lead to bans of increasing severity depending on the number received.
