I was just surfin the net and came across this post on socalmtb.com. A guy had an unfortunate crash at westridge trail last weekend. This quote says it all:
"The guy never moved, no pulse or heartbeat when we found him. I think he was gone the minute he hit the ground. but there were some heroic efforts to save him. the medics managed to get a pulse, but no respiration...later my friend heard from the firemen that he didn't make it. His name was Adam Don. he was 36 and lived in santa monica. and the trail mix in his camel back had m&m's in it..."

Remember to be safe when you're out there riding (especially on an unfamiliar trail). We don't need any more accidents like this.
Also, like someone mentions on that board. It's a good idea to keep some emergency contact info in your pak, as well as a cell phone with some local police and fire station numbers. We all should be prepared just in case something like this happens when we're around.
