Mountain biker dies at hospital after collapsing during race in Suamico

Sunday, August 26, 2012 5:32 p.m. CDT

SUAMICO, WI (WTAQ) - A 38-year-old man from Manitowoc collapsed and later died during a mountain biking competition Sunday.

The man was a participant in the Reforestation Ramble Cross-Country Mountain Bike Race in Suamico.

The Brown County Sheriff’s Department did not immediately release the man name until family could be notified.

Around 12:30 p.m. the biker collapsed after stopping at a first-aid station along the route.

The man was pronounced dead at the hospital.

The race involved more than 600 competitors from kids to adults.
