| Yellow Flags
I've heard there was lots of overtakes under the yellow flag at Druids...
Sorry if I'm sounding condesending, but DON'T DO IT!
As well as a DD race god, I'm a track marshal trained to national level, and it's unbelievably dangerous to be overtaking a rider who might be lacking concentration by rubber-necking an incident. And how would you feel if your overtake went wrong and took out a marshal who's there trying to help one of your friends?
When sporting my orange overalls I have no hesitation in reporting these incidents to the clerk of the course. Whether the pass was safe or not, that's only known in hindsight.
End of lesson.
