Agreed. A club member, who is relatively young (50s) and did a lot of riding, including competing in the Mt Mitchell challenge, was on a training ride with a group. After a hard climb, he felt "woozy" and on the descent (at about 40 MPH) began to lose control of his bike. Luckily, he managed to get it stopped and dismounted, where he proceeded to have a heart attack.
