Cyclist dies after crashing into parked car
A cyclist has died after he collided with a parked car in a seaside town.
The tragic accident happened just before 9.50am on Friday at the junction of Scarborough Road and Ravine Hill, in Filey, North Yorkshire.
North Yorkshire Police say the cyclist, a man in his late 60s, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The road was fully closed for more than five hours as emergency services worked in the area. It reopened at 3.30pm.
Police are now appealing for witnesses and are asking anyone with information who has not yet spoken to officers to contact them.
The cyclist, who was riding a black bike, was wearing a navy blue jacket, blue jeans and a blue cycling helmet.
North Yorkshire Police said it does not believe any other vehicles were involved in the collision.
145D is on Egyptian Embassy diplomatic plates so no chance police will have any interest unfortunately.
Is that like comfort eating, but with bikes?
I was going to say much the same thing, although the particular bit of road in question seems like pristine tarmac by Ox standards. Also the video...
"at a typical racing speed of 40kph, drag makes up about 90% of the total resistance."...
Having been knocked off three times by pedestrians who ran into me, I could hardly disagree.
There was a nationwide consultation about decades of car dominance sometime in the early 1960s, I remember my grandmother telling me about it. ...
I have absolutely no idea what you are getting at there . . . . . .
I purchased a Ribble on Jan 6th 2022 and it finally arrived on the 22nd June 2022....A painful wait!
And just like that, probably not PBU but another of the same set of drive-through opinions did precisely that on t'other thread.
This is quite right , frankly I don't think the plod want to be bothered with these pesky cyclists, they actually have the affrontery to take up...
