Accident: Bicycle hits car turning onto South Shore Drive

Bicyclist is hurt, but concious

Friends try to keep him still, others bring towels and blankets

Turkcee Police finally shows up; female off-duty paramedic stops to give aid until Truckee Fire Shows up.

Looking back up Donner Pass Road.

Flairs being started; NOTICE: Stop painted on pavement -- left over from Triathlon

Bicycle damage seems minimal

Getting patient ready for transport

About to transport the patient.

ALLWAYS be careful when going through the intersection of Donner Pass Road and South Shore Drive!  When exiting South Shore Drive, ALLWAYS look uphill (Left) at least twice BEFORE you move onto Donner Pass Road; roll down your window if you need to due to sunshine.  Look closely to the south edge of Donner Pass Road where bicycles will often be coming down the hill at a HIGH rate of speed!
