I always hate to hear stories like this. We all know our sport can be dangerous but something like this really hits home. Be careful out there everyone!

So sad 😢
There was another fatal crash this past weekend in Virginia as well: http://wtvr.com/2014/07/28/fatal-mountain-bike-crash/

She split her face in half while wearing a full face helmet? 😮

The person quoted in the article said she was wearing her full RACE getup–which to me means spandex, short sleeve XC jersey, and vented helmet.
The article was pretty sparse on details–what exactly was the cause of death? Sounds like she was bleeding a lot but that’s about it…

I was wondering the same thing.
