Bad news for Omer down in the Tour of California today:
14:55 PST
Two riders from today's stage, both crash victims, are on their way to the Modesto hospital in an ambulance. Both riders crashed fairly early in the stage, on the descent from Sierra Road. Omer Kem (Bissell) reportedly has a broken femur. Ian MacGragor (Team Type 1) is the second rider in route. No report yet on his injuries.
Here's wishing him a speedy recovery and hope that he didn't break his femur.
