Pro biker Rab Wardell dead at 37, two days after winning championship.

NY Post: Pro biker Rab Wardell dead at 37, two days after winning championship.

Pro bike rider Rab Wardell died on Tuesday, just two days after he won the MTB XC Championships in Scotland. He was 37.

Scottish Cycling confirmed the news and stated there is “little information” at this time.

We ask that you respect Rab’s family’s privacy at this incredibly sad time,” the group said.

Wardell’s girlfriend, Olympic cycling medalist Katie Archibald, said Wardell went into cardiac arrest while the two were lying in bed together.

I didn't find any info in searches regarding the vaccination policies at USA Cycling, MTB XC or if Mr. Wardell was vaxxed or not. All we know right now is that this is another Sudden Adult Death (Cardiac-related), in what appears to be young and healthy athletes.
