@kellyromanych asks:

Q2. Is there a hand sign (or other way of signaling) for *slow down* to an oncoming bicyclist?

The context is to warn the rider that they are coming up too quickly on a hazard around a bend in the road.

Thanks, all

Ride safe

@kellyromanych @bikenite A2. I think I'd use both the "stopping" or "slowing" signal (hand out/down, palm facing backwards, fingertips diagonal or towards the road)

And then I'd wave it if they're behind me.

If they're ahead and headed towards me (riding in the opposite direction as me), I think I'd wave my arm overhead side to side and try to yell to them to watch out.
