A helicopter airlifted a bicyclist to a hospital after the rider fell on a trail near San Luis Obispo on Friday.

Shortly after 5:30 p.m., firefighters responded to a report of a bicyclist down on the Eucalyptus Trail near the 3000 block of Stenner Creek Road. Firefighters used an off-road vehicle to make access to the bicyclist, according to Cal Fire.

A CHP helicopter then airlifted the individual to the hospital with unreported injuries.

Great. Just great. Now we have to paint all the mountain bike trails green so nobody else gets hurt.

I rode that trail this afternoon. Gotta be careful. Hopefully this individual will be OK, because it’s possible to really wipe out hard up there. As I’m now a bit older, I don’t bomb the downhills like I used to. I also pass on all the jumps in the Eucs and Flyin’ Ewok.
