Disgusted, you said people were murdered for their bicycles? Man it is getting super desperate and dangerous. This guy turned up in a pond miles from the race track? And his bike is missing? What a bunch of shit-you can’t even go biking without being Shanghaied ! F’in Dangerous man! I guess a guy needs to carry all the time and be on high military Green Beret style of alert at all times! Sheesh- I think it is the same as being in a war zone. This sounds like Nicaragua where I was kidnapped during a daylight tour of a mall in Managua. Never drop your guard people. It could cost you your life. I knew a gringo who always told me nothing happened to him. Well he was lucky. His luck ran out eventually though and he ended up in prison in Honduras. He was very lucky in Costa Rica. Just because it hasn’t happened to you YET–don’t be fooled–Your luck can run out any time. If you are in Costa Rica–never trust anyone! Take it from me– it is super dangerous there because there is not the same amount of police presence as in USA and you can disappear anytime anywhere.They will kill you over your bicycle..even I didn’t think of that.

No no, i’m not saying investigating police should relax in any way but before YOU say it’s murder and then say we are not safe anywhere and saying it is a forgone conclusion you should wait.
The fact the bike is missing is not necessarily anything else than someone took it.
He could have had a heart attack, stroke, epileptic seizure, snake bite but there appeared no evidence of violence so…
It is possible that the worse happened but he was old and undergoing intense stress.

The fact his bike is missing would lead any logical mind to a conclusion that foul play was involved. Especially considering he was seen 3km from the finish line. He was in good health.

But, yes, hopefully more clues will surface. I am not sure what clues an autopsy could possibly find in a case like this?

Instead of waiting for autopsy results, and active investigation should continue on sight by interviewing people. The more time that passes, the harder it will be to solve. I wonder if his bike was one of the more expensive bikes in the race? That would be a strong clue in itself.

don’t arrive to conclusions before the autopsy. More people die from other causes then murder.

A high end bicycle can cost well over 1K here.. So a missing bike ! well looks very specious.. I remember years ago where some other cyclists were murdered for their bicycle.. A shame nowhere safe it seems.
