Brought to hospital
Two injured in serious bike accidents in Tyrol
There were two serious bike accidents in Tyrol on Tuesday. Shortly after midday, a local man (61) crashed his racing bike on the Silvretta High Alpine Road. In the evening, a pothole proved fatal for a local woman (40) in Stockach in the Außerfern region.
For a 61-year-old local man, a ride on his racing bike on the Silvretta High Alpine Road in the municipality of Galtür ended in hospital. The man probably fell in a left-hand bend through no fault of his own. He sustained a serious shoulder injury.
An acquaintance who was riding ahead on his bike called the ambulance. After first aid, the injured man was flown by emergency helicopter to the hospital in Innsbruck.
Pothole caused a fall
The trip also ended in hospital for a local woman (40) who was riding her bike along a gravel path in Stockach. The woman was riding there at around 8.35 p.m. when she hit a pothole with her front wheel. She lost control and fell over the embankment.
She suffered a serious injury to her left elbow. She was taken to the district hospital in Reutte by ambulance.
