Last Night, a rider (Jackie - Crank Cycing) crashed realllll bad at the velodrome last night (in my race!), like unconscious and ambulance bad. I walked close to the scene and she was clearly knocked out, making snoring/sneezing type noises and very bloody.

I think the rider in front of her moved up track without looking over and swiped her front wheel, causing her to hit the deck on a particularly steep part of the banking. Said rider did the same thing to me on the last lap of the motopace warmup - he moved out of the pole lane without looking up while I was fully ungaged in my sprint about to pass, causing me to veer wayyyyy up track. Careful out there guys.

Keep Jackie in your thoughts all you San Diego people.
