A motorist intentionally shoved a cyclist off the road and into a ditch in Oregon on Saturday during a MS 150 bike ride. The rider suffered cuts and bruises; the motorist left the scene and is being sought by police.

Pro cyclist George Hincapie was among the 900 bike riders in the two-day fund-raiser for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society that rode out of Forest Grove on Saturday and Sunday. The Oregon Wine Country MS 150 Bike Tour raised about $600,000 this year.

In fact the bicycle rider involved in the incident, Kyle Ranson, was riding with the Discovery Channel team member minutes before he was struck. Ranson was last year’s top money-maker in the event, raising $13,000.
