I raced in Fort Collins today, first race as a 3, got 15th I think...

BUT i was in a group with a guy that went down pretty hard in a corner solo. Does anybody know if he's okay. We spent about 50 miles working together... He said his name was Yuki I think.

Anybody hear about this guy?

If it is who I think you are talking about, he rode to the finish and said he was in pretty good shape, but he did go over to the ambulance. I don't know what they did for him but he was not transported to the hospital.

Was this at the corner at Bellvue? I just happened to be riding out there, probably around 9:30-10:00, and came upon the aftermath of a crash. This guy was up and walking, so it looked like he was ok. He had some road rash, and blood and scrapes on his face. He was riding a Pinarello.

This was the left turn going back onto the dam for the 2nd time.

I saw the guy you're talking about the next day w/ bandages on one entire side and on his face, he seemed in a good mood, but pretty superficially scraped up.
