Rucksacks on a World cup course no surprise there.
Gutted for your mate.
I've had to bail due to idiots walking on trails before and then I got run over!
I'm amazed we havn't had a "It's Scotland - they have every right to be anywhere" response yet - which is what I got when I met some blokes doing Kirrochtree black backwards 🙁
Do Nevis have any riders on course as bike patrol? Few other places around the world have this which does help to spot and educate those out of their depth. If anything does come from this I hope that they have some very visible ride rules up there - the current code of conduct isn't that good.
But if you are a group and you have an accident somewhere like that getting a rider up to the nearest sight line to stop/slow other riders is a top priority if you are not clearing off the track quickly.
It's a dh track, get out the road ya fools!

I bumped into a bike patrol guy at the end of a day a few years back. Had to wait for him to ensure he got down ok, seemed miles out of his comfort zone!
