This morning. In attendance by paramedics, but no police around. Another cyclist had stopped. Two artics pulled over on the opposite side of the road. Looked okay; being given O2 I guess.

Hope you're okay.

  • Hope they are ok. Was it before or after the pedestrian crossing?

    Before. Generally a safe place to cycle. Don't really know the facts. Only there after the event.

    I saw this but the guy was on his feet and it looked like he was being given a plaster and seemed fine so didn't think it worth mentioning

    It was before the bend where the 2 directions converge very near the 'shortcut' round the inside of Mcdonalds
