What a terrible tragedy!  Apparently his partner is expecting twins in September.  Awful news.

sad news just watching eurosport about the accident. 

For those that have no idea who Wouter is - He rode for Leopard road team and died yesterday in the Giro d' Italia:


press report:

Weylandt suffered fatal skull and facial injuries as well as damage to his pelvis and a broken leg in Monday's crash, Dr Armando Mannucci the pathologist who carried out the autopsy revealed earlier on Tuesday. A toxicology report is underway.

The 26-year-old crashed on the twisting descent of the Bocco mountain pass around 25km from the finish line on Monday's third stage which ended in Rapallo.

While travelling at speed his left pedal briefly touched a wall at the side of the road, propelling him 20 metres to the ground below where he landed heavily on his face.

Weylandt's parents and partner Anne-Sophie, who is due to give birth to their first child in September, laid flowers at the scene of his death also on Tuesday.
