Well known Toronto based cyclist and coach Ilija Petrovski was involved in a serious accident while riding north of Oshawa on Monday.  According to news reports, 2 dogs ran out onto the road and while he was able to avoid one, collided with the other and went down hard, hitting his head.

Petrovski is currently in the Intensive care unit at Sunnybrook hospital after brain surgery and in an induced coma . The next few days are critical!!!

Scott Judges puts it this way and I cannot think of a better phrasing:

"Illya could use as much positive energy and best wishes from as many fellow cyclists as possible."
