Hmmm. Smart enough to diagnose his injuries, but not smart enough to avoid


them? Mountain bikers are such IDIOTS!

MD survives mountain bike crash


SUMAS/CKNW(AM980)

Rescue crews had to get creative tracking down a mountain biker who


crashed on Sumas Mountain Wednesday afternoon.




The man used his cell phone to call for help, but when firefighters from


Abbotsford arrived, they couldn't find him.




Assistant Fire Chief Dave Rivett says they sounded sirens until they got


close enough for him to call them again, "It wasn't that tricky to get him


off the mountain. Our main concern was that he definitely had a back


injury and also, he was hypothermic by the time we were able to get to


him. So, getting him packaged and getting him down, getting him medivaced


out by helicopter was the important thing."




The man's name hasn't been released, but he's a Doctor, so he was able to


self-diagnose his injuries.




Well, I suppose a diagnosis for MV would also be appropriate, by a qualified

psychiatrist, but in the meantime, if you'd like to contribute to the "Get

Mike Vandeman Laid" fund, have your credit card ready and call 1-800-HAND-

JOB.


Thanks for demonstrating, for the millionth time, just what the typical mountain biker's IQ is, and where their mind is. You guys are your own worst enemies.
