Cycling coach is first casualty

BANGKOK (Reuters): Indonesian coach Budi Arianto has become the first casualty of the Asian Games mountain bicycle competition after crashing through a glass door, officials said on Tuesday.

They said Budi was rushed to hospital and needed 15 stitches after going through the glass door of the organizing committee office in Pak Cong district north of Bangkok where the mountain bike races are being held.

The officials said Budi was heading out of the office in a hurry. "We don't know whether the insurance covers this," said one.
