Colo. (Map, News) - Authorities say La Plata County District Attorney
Craig Westberg was injured in a mountain biking accident in Arizona
last weekend.

No details have been released.

The 64-year-old Westberg did not run for re-election. His term ends
Jan. 13.

Todd Risberg, who was elected in November to succeed Westberg,
confirmed the injury but declined to discuss specifics.

Westberg is chief prosecutor for the 6th Judicial District, which
includes Archuleta and San Juan counties along with La Plata.

He pleaded guilty in December to driving under the influence of a
sleeping pill. He lost his driving privileges for a year and was
ordered to serve 10 days of home detention, perform public service and
pay court costs and restitution.

Thanks for a incorrect generalization about something which has
nothing to do with cycling, apart from how a person was injured.

Easily, because you didn't post any details apart from a link to the
article you copy and pasted in as well to link which supported your
seven cylibal "commentary" on one person's misfortune. Oh, and the
article that you both linked to and copy and pasted states in plain
English "No details have been released."

Are you suggesting that anyone who "mountain bikes" deserves any
injury they recieve just because you have an extremist view against
all forms of mountain biking?

How humanitarian of you. No, wait...

Michael J. Vandeman, thanks for convincing me to buy a mountain-bike.
Had you not constantly cross-posted your mountain-biking info in the
backcountry group, I would have never even considered such a purchase.
You got me interested in something new and I appreciate it. Looking
forward to spending some time on the trails riding. Maybe we can ride
together sometime.

I'm building one too and plan on sending Michael loads of pictures of
myself doing so. I do not skid going down hills or in turn though.
It's really bad from an errosion standpoint, it is worse for stopping
than not skidding, and it kicks up too dust which could end up on my
bike.

It's a 29er, so it'll let me ride on the road too so I can annoy as
many different kinds of cyclists and cyclist haters as possible.

OK, maybe I'm not going to send Mike pictures, but I want to.
