Trek you refered to an accident where it looked like a Hybrid hit someone.... do you know if she was okay. This would of been on Camino Tassajara about 2 miles west of Blackhawk. She was about 20 yds infront of me when she just tipped over out of nowhere...going about 20mph+. No hands went out or anything, she just tipped and her bike buckled (stroke/passed out?). Her riding buddy was infront of her and didn't see her go down, I jumped off and dropped my bike and ran over. There was blood pouring from her head...not sure if it was her nose or not. We didn't want to move her. She started going into shock, covered her up with my extra shirt and then a nurse (rider) showed up shortly and was assisting. People called 911 and the emergency number...luckily there was no car coming in that lane. THe woman in the hybrid stopped to block traffic in that lane and was helping get paramedics there. I am just trying to find out if anyone had heard anything further...is she okay etc...
It pretty much blew the ride for me...my friends and I were traumatized and couldn't get back into the groove of things the rest of the day. We had been talking to her at the stoplights and stuff.... It is amazing how fast it happened. She was probably mid 50's and looked like an experienced rider.
Everyone please make sure you helmet fits you well!!!!! -Nic
Please forgive the quality...I'm not exactly a great photographer. :D
A shot down the table....

After a while, I started looking to the pastures for photo op's. Stopped a few times to take pics (& 'prolly pissed off everybody I kept re-passing over & over :D ).
The headwind section -- not so much a bear this year & I met a new friend along there (pic to come, next post).

This sweet gal captured my heart. :) I'll look for her next year.
She watched the riders passing by for a moment, and then came over for some free ear scratchin'. :)

Hamming it up!!

I guess the fence makes a great scratchpost, not to mention a good way to meet new humans.
Attachment 2892
Her buddy started to come over, but stopped in favor of the grass. I don't blame her.

I remembered this place from last year, so I was sortof looking for it. Looks like they were having a horse show there, so it was great timing (this looks like the practice ring -- riders weren't wearing coats or numbers). Total eye candy -- these are some NICE horses. Wowie.... :p

In the last miles they passed me. Hey, if you're lurking here, say "hi" next time why dontcha, not too many of us out there. Also, you there with the champagne color Mondonico, your under seat bag is falling off ;)
Mellisam, I really should have let you ride my bike. We're the same height so it is required by TE cycling law you know**.
Next time for sure.
Resistance is futile to fully lugged steel, you will be assimilated. :rolleyes: :cool: ;)
** TE cycling law 504a.5. If the rider is 5'4" or shorter and your height, and you trust them not to run off a cliff or fly into a truck or bunny hop your road bike over a log .... and you have a bike they can't find often they must test ride.
