No, an old man on a cruiser, perhaps in a t-shirt saying "I survived the Dragon." The tractor trailer continued without injury? Or just failure to countersteer with 4 hour rescue time? Nope..
"Sad to announce a death on the Dragon Wednesday June 6. A Louisiana rider went into the ditch and then careened off the steep embankment. He was reportedly standing and talking to other riders after the accident. Some say possible heart attack."

"It seems silly untilo something bad happens to you. Those little safety whistles are like 50 cents, you can put it on your keychain. A couple of weeks ago somebody went off, for an hour until somebody heard him yelling. He tried to crawl back up but he was so injured, he ending up being the first fatality of the year, on the way in the ambulance."

At least he lived life. RIP
