Kim, you are very bad!
(Has there been another tack incident recently?)
The Tour yesterday, 30 riders with punctures and Wiggo neutralised the stage to be fair to those affected.

"Brajkovič had a flat tyre just after the last KOM, Kiserlovski moved from left to right to give him his wheel and I couldn't avoid the collision. I hit him and I crashed. I feel bad for him, but it was an accident," said Levi Leipheimer (Omega Pharma-QuickStep) on his team site.
I would take a broom or other road cleaning implement. I have been thwarted though.Any plans I might have had to witness any Olympic event in the flesh that hadn't already been scuppered by lack of tickets has been well and truly scuppered by me being rostered for Olympics based back office duties for the entirity of the event (plus the Paralympics). Any viewing by yours truly will be by tellybox

There will be 1700 marshalls at the road races. There will be all sorts of back-up in place including emergency street sweeping teams in case any one of the 1700 pairs of eyes spots someone doing things they aren't supposed to do.
Rumours have it (and there is always a rumour mill) that two people were arrested near box hill with tacks in pockets and a chap was arrested on the Fulham road spreading tacks on Saturday.
