There's an accident at the south end of Gracechurch Street (in the City), a squashed bike underneath the trailer of an artic. Ambulances had been and gone but street cordoned off, and police photographers there. From the position of the lorry it didn't look like a left turn incident. Let's hope it's not the worst.

People here saw that too, said that it looked very nasty with the bike still right under the lorry.
Fingers crossed for all0 -
Doesn't sound good if the police photographers are present. Really hope I'm wrong.
Is it at the Monument end? The traffic lights at the end of London Bridge don't seem to be sync'ed up properly, because traffic still comes from the left when you set off from LB into Gracechurch St. Either that or drivers are jumping lights to avoid waiting for the sequence to come round again.0 -
Is that by Fenchurch Street or just before Bishopsgate? Either way, both crossroads are very hazardous, I tend to avoid them on my way out of the city.0

That thread now says it wasn't fatal. Very good news if that's the case.FCN 2-4.

Hope the rider is OK!
This is getting scary! This would be the 3rd lorry/cycle incident in less than a month!0
