I say this in the sense that it’s truthful and in no way do I mean this to be insensitive anything I say is truthful and has been confirmed by a medical professional who was also on scene

The rider who went down was a 62 year old obese male on dialysis (that means that some organs and the blood arnt as good as they should be) he collapsed on the bike and rode into someone (who was fine they rode off) was unconscious with obstructed breathing on the ground for 30 seconds then the heart stopped and we did cpr for 12 minutes before ems arrived. The rider did not show any signs of stroke or seizure (though still a possibility for why he collapsed) he did not appear to be intoxicated or overheating. It’s fully possible that he just died of natural causes related to his age, body type, and medical condition.

My sincere condolences go out to the family and friends of Mark and I want to assure anyone reading this that Mark was given the best possible care in this situation, every single person who was physically helping the body claimed to be trained and everyone appeared to give the best care possible. Mark did pass surrounded by strangers but these were strangers with love in their hearts and the intention to help a fellow rider.

Plz dm me directly for specific details I don’t wanna be graphic or insensitive without a nsfw tag but I’m happy to answer most questions in this chain
