This one is a little close to home for me, her family comes from Derby and so do I, but the incident happened in Nottingham and she became a victim of a left turning lorry and lost her life instantly, it's just been through the court system and the facts that he was convincted on are that he...

http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16907 Just got wind of this, this is on my route but never cycled this morning so was not aware.

The cyclist was hit three days ago and left for dead. After an appeal, it appears the driver has handed himself in. "The vehicle involved in the collision is likely to have sustained some exterior damage and so anyone who notices some new dents or marks on the car of a family member, friend...

From our local rag's web page: "A cyclist was injured during a collision with a car. A 59-year-old man was crossing the roundabout joining the Silk Road and Bollington Road in Macclesfield when he collided with a black Mercedes at 8am this morning (Wednesday, September 14)." The way this has...

This cyclist's killer had eight previous convictions, all for using a phone while driving yet was allowed to keep his licence. Only six weeks after pleading that loss of his licence would be an exceptional hardship, he did it again and killed Lee Martin...

http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/14704334.Cyclist_dies_after_being_hit_by_car_in_Bacup/ Just read this and felt numb. I know that road and have cycled on it myself so feel this one on a personal level.

I've just made it home after being knocked off my bike. It happened this morning just as we were about to set off on our Wednesday run. Another of the group wobbled then fell to his right. I was passing him at the time, i didn't have time to react(i was clipped in)so i went down on my right hip...

Looking to buy a bike for a friend who's looking to get some exercise around his local area. He's in early 70s and just looking for something that will get him along cycle paths and odd flat woodland trail. Something relatively low maintenance would be good. Doesn't need many gears. Wont be...

How is the sunny weather treating everyone? My Mrs just pointed out to me that I have the most ridiculous suntan ever. White hands, extremely brown forearms and lower legs a white body and totally sun tanned head and neck apart from where my shades have been. Going on holiday Monday...

Driver failed to stop for police but now in custody, http://www.pulse1.co.uk/news/local/cyclist-killed-after-being-hit-by-a-car-in-bingley/

So sad to read of this today. This is a busy dual line road with little provision for cyclists in the most part yet is very popular with cyclists heading to the coast from Belfast. The speed limit varies between 40 and 50mph but this means little to most motorists that use the road. The road...

http://m.dailyecho.co.uk/news/14594523.Cyclist_seriously_hurt_in_crash_with_car/ I read this, in the local rag, the other day. This morning I got back into work, having taken yesterday off, and a guy who I work with, and is always on time, wasn't here. Unfortunately, it seems that he was the...

Man disqualified from driving jailed for killing cyclist "A 27-year-old man who knocked down and killed a cyclist in Dublin last year while he was banned from driving has been sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison. Christopher Coleman from Reuben Street in Dublin pleaded guilty to...

Even though the car driver is clearly in the wrong, and nearly knocks a guy off his bike, he feels it approriate to threaten the cyclist with a baseball bat. Ok the cyclist should not have kicked his car, but given the recklessness of the manoeuvre, and how close he was to being knocked off, I...

I think this is going to be down to either drink or drugs on the part of the driver. What a nightmare. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/five-cyclists-killed-four-injured-in-michigan-car-crash/ar-AAgMlna?ocid=spartandhp

http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/our-city/east-leeds/harehills/cyclist-seriously-injured-in-harehills-collision-1-7945073 A woman cyclist seriously injured. Innocuous looking junction - but it's a nasty.

When I think I have seen it all, today I was totally puzzled. Large queue of traffic ahead moving about 10-15mph. I join that queue matching the speed of the traffic being there is no room to filter safely (my avg on that road up to that point being 21mph). Behind me a car joins, matching the...

Oh dear, another female cyclist has died following a collision with a lorry. There's no good news here, but it's worth pointing out the number of deaths in Greater London has declined dramatically. I think this is the first death in the Greater London area for about 11 months, or it may be the...

By now the driver is long gone, but they have the Reg BU53 FVM, but who was driving it ?? http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/14506733.Pensioner_cyclist_dies_after_crash/

That I saw today, he was dressed head to toe in a powder blue lycra outfit x Who here wears anything similar, or would you wear it. Even if wouldn't and I'm a girlie girl :girldance:

Hi all, I've posted about Derek's story before, but I can finally divulge my article that I wrote about him in Vancouver's Momentum Mag! HERE is the link. Have a read! Enjoy! :) Jack. PS: As always, questions, comments and critique are welcome.

http://www.clitheroeadvertiser.co.uk/news/local/witness-appeal-after-whalley-crash-leaves-cyclist-with-serious-injuries-1-7909984 Came across by total chance. Cyclist from Clitheroe apparently. Anyone know them?
