EAST BURKE, Vt. — A bicyclist from Canada was evacuated from a Vermont
mountain biking trail after he crashed into a tree and was found by
another rider.
The 47-year-old Quebec man, whose name wasn't immediately released,
was biking at Kingdom Trails in East Burke when he apparently went
over the handlebars and hit a tree. He was conscious afterward but had
numbness and tingling in his extremities.

He was treated at the scene and later taken to Northeastern Regional
Hospital in St. Johnsbury.

The Caledonian Record says members of the Sheffield-Wheelock Remote
Rescue Unit, East Burke Fire Department, Lyndon Rescue and Kingdom
Trails officials responded.
