We use a Black Arrow on a Florescent Yellow background to sign the route. We also mark the roads with a Yellow arrow using temporary spray. The Route signs are put out just before the events and are checked on the morning of the event. We also have a vehicle that proceeds the riders making sure the signs are still in place.
