Injured mountain biker rescued
Published: September 24. 2011 4:00AM PST
A mountain biker who injured himself while riding near the Wanoga Sno
Park was rescued Thursday evening, the Deschutes County Sheriff s
Office said.


Perry Hertler, 40, of Milwaukee, was riding down the Tiddlywinks Trail
when he failed to negotiate a jump, seriously injuring himself. A
friend who had been riding with him called 911 and directed rescuers
to their location.

Hey, jumps on trails are fine. *But, cellfones should not be allowed.
Without the cellfone, the backcountry jumps might be much smaller


Good point! I agree. By the way, what is the "app" for "how to fix my
broken neck"?- Hide quoted text -

Yes, they do. Habitat restoration is something everyone should be
doing, to try to correct the mess humans have made of the world.
Mountain bikers, on the other hand, only know how to DESTROY habitat.
