It is reported the cyclist is a diabetic and was suffering from acute

pilgrims to be extremely careful with their Camino preparations and to avoid
taking any chances, particularly if they are cycling.

Hello William, :)
As a pilgrim/hospitalero/csj member who tries to do a little bit on this forum I am in awe of people like yourself who research and post important information for pilgrims - eg the recent difficulty re diabetes.
Many thanks for all your work for pilgrims on the forum, it is an encouragement to us all.
Best wishes
