Goddammit   According to Swiss Blick, the trauma helicopter landed only an hour after the end of the race...and a motorbike rider in the race said he wasn't even aware it had happened, leading to the second pass there having no safety precautions whatsoever.

Swiss cyclist Muriel Furrer has died after suffering a serious head injury at the Road World Championships...

must be one of the biggest jumps in the ranking in recent years I believe...     2 weeks ago     today : 2 weeks later      

and another win...   Hope she will not leave Beijing in wheelchair though    

Cogne (ITA) has prevailed over Ulricehamn (SWE) and will replace the World Cup in Nove Mesto (CZE). This means that a total of 10 World Cup races are planned in Italy next season.  

What's worse there is that it took insanely long for anyone to even go there and try to help her....like, nothing happened, at all.

Pointsbet Invitational on this week!    Already a few upsets in the round of 16 with Team McDonald defeating Team Dunstone (not the biggest of the surprises, he took Team Carruthers the distance at the provincial playdowns), Team Asselin defeating Team Carruthers, and perhaps the biggest one Team MacNutt defeating Team Einarson (I will also add that Birchard suffered a knee injury recently and is taking some time off, so Walker is coming in as a replacement)
