in my area the typical situation for a cyclists hazard sign is actually
cycleways crossing the street. I cannot remember having seen such signage
for places where cyclists are using the road. If we want to distinguish
these 2 cases I suggest to use more explicit values like
hazard=cyclists_on_the_road and hazard=bicycle_crossing, because
hazard=cyclists does not make it clear and would be used in all bicycle
related "hazardous" situations.

Cheers
