Ambulance on jail trail 7/25 at 5pm

I rode through around 515pm and the ambulance driver was just closing the doors. When I looked behind me, I thought I saw a bicycle in the back also. Any idea who this was and if the person is ok?

Don't know the rider, but when I saw him, he looked pretty shaken up and he had some injuries to his arms, above and beyond the expected road rash on the palms. Someone I spoke to there mentioned the rider had struck his head and had been unconscious for a time. When I saw him, he was still in the middle of the trail, conscious, but looking pretty dazed and injured. Hope he's okay.

I hope he did not hit one of the concrete blocks ,,I still think they should be moved over a bit to have riders have more room ,no cars can get by and they are very dangerous .
