A cyclist in the Five Boro Bike Tour yesterday went into cardiac arrest on the Queensboro Bridge, Fire Department officials said.
The incident occurred just before 10 a.m. during the tour that drew approximately 30,000 cyclists. The biker, who was not identified, was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital of Queens and was awake and conscious at the time, according to fire officials.
It is unclear if this incident is related to a crash reported earlier in a Gothamist post, but by the looks of the comment section, there were a few tumbles during the tour.
