Concord, NH (August 27, 2025) – A bicyclist was injured Tuesday morning following a reported fall near Mountain Rd in Concord. The incident, which occurred shortly before noon on August 26, prompted emergency dispatch to the scene to assist the injured rider and manage nearby traffic affected by an unrelated fire response.
According to audio from Concord Police Dispatch, the bicyclist sustained injuries after falling in the roadway area. The specific cause of the fall has not been confirmed, and no other vehicles were reported to be involved. Emergency responders from Concord Fire and Police units coordinated efforts at the scene, where both medical attention and traffic control were needed due to overlapping incidents in the area.
The condition of the injured bicyclist has not yet been disclosed, but responders evaluated the individual on-site. Whether the cyclist required transport to a medical facility remains unclear as the situation continues to be monitored by local authorities.
This section of Mountain Rd is commonly used by recreational cyclists and commuters alike. Its elevation changes and surrounding activity can contribute to visibility issues and sudden changes in roadway conditions—factors that may have played a role in the fall.
Our thoughts are with the injured bicyclist, and we hope for a full recovery.
Bicycle Accidents in New Hampshire
Cycling accidents, particularly solo falls like the one reported near Mountain Rd in Concord, are more common than many realize. In New Hampshire, where rural and suburban roadways attract both recreational riders and daily cyclists, incidents can happen suddenly—often due to pavement defects, gravel, or abrupt changes in terrain.
Although this particular case did not involve a motor vehicle, the injuries sustained can still be serious, especially if the cyclist falls at higher speeds or is not wearing adequate protective gear. Mountain Rd, with its scenic but sometimes narrow shoulders and elevation shifts, presents added risks for even experienced riders.
Bicyclists involved in falls may suffer head trauma, fractures, or abrasions that require ongoing care. Additionally, navigating the aftermath—especially in situations where public hazards or overlapping traffic complications exist—can be confusing and stressful.
Ensuring a safe recovery often means more than just medical treatment. It can involve documenting the incident, accessing follow-up care, and understanding what support services are available to help with physical and financial recovery.
