An autopsy is scheduled today to determine the cause of death of an unidentified mountain biker who was found unconscious Sunday morning in Annadel State Park by two horseback riders.
The biker, whom investigators described as a white male in his mid 30s, had parked his bike and collapsed at a picnic table at the junction of Live Oak and Rough-Go trails, a park ranger and spokesmen for the Sonoma County Sheriff's Department said.
California State Parks Ranger Bob Birkland said the equestrians, who discovered the biker at about 11:30 a.m., and several mountain bikers attempted to resuscitate the man. None at the scene knew who he was .
A Sonoma County Sheriff's helicopter crew airlifted the biker from the trail and performed CPR en route to a parking lot, where paramedics were waiting to treat him. The biker was pronounced dead before being transported to a hospital, around noon, Sheriff's Sgt. Eric Thomson said. The actual time of death is unknown.
Investigators Sunday afternoon were still trying to identify the man, who was found without ID.
"It does not look like it's related to a bicycling accident," Coroner's Sgt. Will Wallman said. "It looks like he suffered some type of medical emergency."
