    I think CG makes a number of valid points here.

    One of the issues is that sportives exist in a lacuna – if they were a race or time trial, which would be much smaller and have less impact on local traffic/communities, then they would be regulated and need to work in liaison with police/LA. The fact that a number of the ‘sportives’ are in effect running unregulated quasi-races (published times etc) for profit should be a clear cause for concern for the organisations that supposedly oversee and promote them.
