Rally cycling is racking up wins and also injuries at the North Star Grand Prix in Minnesota.

The team reports the following

Despite it being a successful week on the results sheet, Wednesday night’s St. Paul Criterium and the Cannon Falls race was marred by several crashes in the men’s and women’s races, both involving Rally Cycling athletes. Catherine Oullette and Katherine Maine hit the deck in St. Paul in separate pileups. Maine suffered a concussion and was forced to withdraw, while Ouellette chipped two teeth (and still has one of the best smiles in the peloton). In Cannon Falls, a large crash on a long descent early in the race wreaked havoc on the men’s field. As a result of the crash, Adam de Vos and Jesse Anthony ended the day in the hospital. de Vos suffered broken ribs while Anthony came out in slightly better shape, with bruised ribs and liver.
