Rider Down:

John Bentley, who won a Senior Games race on Saturday, crashed on Sunday during a group ride while descending on Route 100 when two riders touched wheels and crashed in front of him. Concussion (LOC), bruises, road rash, but nothing broken. All he needs is a new helmet and a few weeks to heal.
