In a
recent post I told you about the minor crash on our last training ride out at Progress Park. I've just gotten a follow-up on how Doug is doing. The image below illustrates just how bad crashing sucks. I must admit, Doug's bruising is way worse than I thought it'd be...I guess when you're over 50, the blood doesn't circulate quite as well huh Doug?

On a way more serious note, one of America's most talented young pro-cyclists in currently in a coma resulting from a crash in the final kilometers of the opening stage of the Circuit de la Sarthe. Saul Raisin is listed in serious condition in a hospital in France. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Saul and his family
That was a seriously nasty stage for crashes. Juan Carlos Dominguez, Tyler Farrar and Brett Lancaster all hit the deck and have collar bone injuries. Lancasters's break is pretty serious; his clavicle is broken in four places and needs a custom piece of metal for the surgery.
Saul is without a doubt the worse off and I hope his recovery is speedy.
