(09-20) 10:31 PDT DALY CITY -- A man who fell off a beach cliff while mountain biking near Daly City on Wednesday was rescued with only minor to moderate injuries, authorities said.

The man, whose name was not released, was riding a mountain bike along a narrow hiking path near Westline and Skyline drives in Daly City when he fell around 6 p.m., said Matt Lucett, a spokesman for the North County Fire Authority.

Fire crews responded to the top of the 40-foot cliff and found the man at the beach near the bottom, Lucett said. The rescuers used ropes and pulleys to lower down paramedics who checked the man and found nothing serious. The man, who is about 20 years old, was hoisted back up and taken to San Francisco General Hospital for an evaluation, Lucett said.
