Top Spanish track rider Sergi Escobar is in doubt for the Euskal Bizikleta, May 31-June 4, after being hit by a motorbike while training on Monday. Escobar was not seriously injured, but was sufficiently banged around by the impact that he may not be able to lead his Grupo Nicolás Mateos-Murcia team in the Basque race.
"I was doing a series of intervals, so at times I was riding at 50km/h, when a motorcyclist pulled pulled out without seeing me," said Escobar. "It was impossible to avoid it, and the impact was brutal."
