Dutchman Peter Schep felt so unwell during the third night of the Gent Six Day race on Thursday that he had to be carried off the track and taken to hospital. Despite the health scare the 32-year-old Dutchman was back in action for Friday's fourth night of action.
Going into Saturday night's action, Schep and his race partner Jeff Vermeulen are in sixth place, 3 laps behind leaders Iljo Keisse and Roger Kluge.
