    Please note, German marque car (not that I am in the least bit prejudiced!!)...I hope the cyclist is okay. I am assuming the driver was taken to hospital for treatment for shock and not for severe injuries unless the Merc was ended by the lorry!

    passed by later that day, loads of cycles and cyclists, many still in stealth mode, jumping reds and weaving across the road, except one on a drop bar job, he waited at a red for ages,never once putting a foot down, until he got bored, jumped the red and the plod on the path pulled him in , looked like he was getting a good lecture ! No idea how the accident happened, hope all ok !
