A man (47 yrs) came off his mountain bike whilst descending the rocky track. He hit his head and broke his humerus.

As we were dealing with the above incident, another mountain biker (M 40 yrs) also fell off his bike lower down the track, managing to land on his face. He was also treated at the scene.

yes, he was bimbling between 2 rocks, lost his balance and couldn't unclip his new cleats, so he went headfirst into a rock with his arm under him. He had a spiral fracture just above the elbow, in 5 pieces 🙁

I had a look but it seemed to be a minor cut on the chin...

Well tell him to MTFU then and stop using up resources, which I presume are volunteer run.

he was from was a different group of riders - after seeing Chris's accident I think we all bimbled down Castle Crag quite cautiously 🙂

I know it's not funny but that picture looks like a bunch of mountain bikers sneaking in on a kill made by the mountain rescue guys

I presume it's not fashionable to do so , but can I say they were a cracking set of pics, the Mrs thinks so too looking over my shoulder. More power to you SFB and and healing vibes to the one fingered saluting one......
