How odd is this -- yesterday 2 emergency vehicles showed up at our CX race here in MI. Apparently some guy had been in a car/bike accident earlier in the week and was given the go-ahead by his PCP to compete this weekend...sometime during or after the race he was not feeling well. We commented that his doc likely had no clue re: the intensity of a CX race.

So Zoom-zoom- what happened to the rider at the cyclo-cross race? I was told that the intensity of effort of racing up a big hill etc, would have put a lot more pressure on the brain, increased the bleeding etc with respect to the guy I helped.
