Description:
On the afternoon of Friday 12th March, a young man was tragically killed whilst speed riding with friends near La Plagne. The group of friends were speed riding off the top of the Roche de Mio down to Montchavin Les Coches when at around 1pm one of the men struck the ground hard in the DĂ©rochoir couloir. He hit the mountain just after taking off and fell around 100m, colliding with rocks along the way. First aid was given at the scene, before he was transported to Moutiers Hospital via helicopter. Unfortunately, he died of his injuries en route. Although the Roche de Mio is not a designated speed-riding site, some people do take off from this area. The official Speed riding zone is an area in the Vercors sector.
