We recently had a group of four cyclists staying in our cottage. They were out on the K & P Trail and just about 3 km from home, when one of the riders hit a deep rut and was flung into a very deep ditch full of trees and brush. The volunteer fire department was there immediately to cut him out of the brush and bring him out on a spinal board. Quite a task!
A quote from our guests "The paramedics on the scene and the ER staff at Perth were fantastic, but those first responder volunteers were exceptional." The cyclist will require surgery for his shoulder injury.
Thank you for the wonderful job you do. May we never take you for granted.
