United States Tenth Circuit

In a personal injury action based on an accident during a bicycle race, summary judgment for defendant is affirmed where none of the race supervisors was assigned to the area right near the accident, but that choice was not grossly negligent in light of the fact that the stretch of road where the accident occurred was relatively straight and wide.
