I watched it again to see if it was a case of target fixation* but I don't think it was. The cyclist doesn't deviate from a straight line.
*it's relatively common for cyclists or motorcyclists to hit a crossing car actually in the side road to their left, when they might have avoided it by continuing straight or steering around the rear of the car. The human visual/motor system is conditioned to lock onto a moving object,probably for hunting purposes. This is why your PE teacher told you to keep your eye on the ball when batting, and why your driving instructor told you NOT to look at oncoming headlights.
