Well it appears that the consensus is against me. Let me make it clear that I am not criticizing OBRA or the guys at Three Rivers Racing. Nonetheless, I will provide this service at my race in the event that a rider may need assistance. In my 25 years of racing, though I have crashed numerous times, it is the first time I have been hospitalized. Neither have I been in a situation where I felt responsible for another athlete. It was simply an eye opener, as I had to wait at the hospital for almost 2 hours after being discharged. That gave me plenty of time to think it over.

sorry, Mike,
I am with Chuck on this one, while it is hard to get back FROM the hospital, the race doesn't owe that to you.

I was accompanied by one of my athletes who was scheduled to race at 2:00 and he was not notified by the officials until 10 minutes before his start time. Besides, he should not have to miss his race because of my misfortune.
