A New Hampshire man who was critically injured Sept. 9 when he crashed his bicycle in Acadia National Park has died. John Bennett “JB” Parrett, 70, passed away from his injuries two days after his foot came loose from a clip-in pedal as he was biking on the Park Loop Road near the Cadillac North Ridge Trail crossing. Parrett was an experienced road cyclist who, though wearing a helmet, suffered significant head injuries when he fell from his bike.
