Very sad indeed.
The family are in my thoughts.

Assuming the cyclist didn't ride into the car that is. Until you know the facts,you can't say. I agree a 'head on collision' doesn't sound like the sort of thing a cyclist would do, but then we've all seen some pretty bizarre riding out there.
I think 'be careful' is a more helpful remark than yours.

It's a bad time of year for it isn't it. Poor bloke, and awful for his family.
I had this rammed home to me yesterday; my boss either cycles or mopeds into work. Yesterday he was on his red scooter wearing orange hiz viz trousers and a yellow hi viz jacket, he's so luminous you can probably see him from space yet some twunt still managed to pull out right into his path, he took evasive action but the car clipped hem and he came off, bashed up his knee and wrote the scooter off... the lady driving claimed she just didn't see him. We're all just glad he wasn't on his bike or it could have been much worse.
Bloody people, they get in their cages, wack the heater on full and then drive around half asleep. This woman had her young daughter with her as well so you think she'd be more observant.
Take care out there folks!
Oh and if I see one more moron cycling in black clothing with no lights i'm gonna lose it completely, MORONS.
rant over.

Steady on Yenrod, Arch is right. You don't know the facts (none of us do) and it might well be that the poor chap in this case was unlit, on the wrong side of the road, or whatever. He might not have been, true, but we don't know.
Rhythm Thief - thin air DIDNT kill him !
Getting sick and tired of this apologise for everything shoot in life: so british !
The dicks in the cars get everything they deserve !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like IUve said many times if I seen a car crash would I help generally yes but if I was in this mood then I'd prob. laugh !
The shoot Ive taken from them over the years - yeah alright!

Easy Yenrod,
Arch is right, no-one here knows the exact circumstances. All we know is a tragedy has happened and my thoughts are with the family of this poor person.
I can understand your anger, goodness knows, there but for the grace goes all of us, however your anger at Arch is misplaced.

Well, I'm sorry if I've offended you so much yenrod, but if you consistantly jump in with ranting posts that jump to conclusions, I'm consistantly going to niggle at you for it.
If it turns out that a driver was at fault, I'll be down on them like a tonne of bricks, as will everyone else. But until there's more information, we can't possibly tell.
Your attitude is a bad as those drivers who brand all cyclists as lycra louts who jump red lights, it's just turned the other way.
