A roadie-style cyclist in a black Castelli top came past us heading south, having navigated past a slightly doddery chap U-turning an estate car. As we headed away from the scene, Mrs G reported the view in her mirror of the cyclist being involved in a collision with another car further down the road. She described him as being left-hooked by a car that had moved toward a parking space without taking account of him being on the inside. It wasn't clear if he was filtering unseen inside or whether he was overtaken and then left-hooked.</p> <p>Hope he's OK. The car had apparently stopped and there were many witnesses. </p>
