MONTEREY CO.: EXPERIENCED MOUNTAIN BIKER KILLED IN CRASH DURING RACE

The Monterey County coroner's office today scheduled an autopsy for an
experienced mountain biker who died after crashing during a Saturday
afternoon bike race in unincorporated Monterey County, officials said.

San Jose resident Mark Reynolds, 48, was a competition mountain biker
who was riding in the Sea Otter Classic at the Mazda Raceway Laguna
Seca, according to the Monterey County Sheriff's Office.

Reynolds was riding downhill when he apparently failed to negotiate a
small wooden bridge, sending the bike off the side of the bridge and
crashing into a dirt embankment, the sheriff's office reported.

Reynolds, suffering apparent head and neck injuries, was flown to
Natividad Medical Center where he died at about 12:30 p.m., the
sheriff's office reported. An autopsy has been scheduled today to
determine the cause of Reynolds' death, officials said.
