This past weekend, a bicyclist had a heart attack shortly after completing a group ride in Harford County. After completing a ride from Harford Community College to Havre de Grace, the group decided to hit Starbucks to get their caffeine fix and while there Greg Krause had a "medical emergency." He was taken to Upper Chesapeake where he passed away a short time later.
Anyone who knows Greg or just wants to pay respects to a fellow bicyclist, you can see information on the planned gathering at https://www.chesapeakespokeswomen.com/.
The moral of this story is that while we are in better shape than the average person (because of our love for bicycling), keep up with you medical wellness check-ups for those medical problems that may not be obvious!
