http://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-news/cyclist-pronounced-dead-scene-after-10975138

Last wheel in the Twickenham Cycling Club chaingang hit a pothole at speed last night. Tragic.

Council had marked the hole with paint - so they knew about it but sitting on it. FFS

Just read about this - very, very sad. Thoughts with the club, friends and family.

Tragic news. Thoughts with their family friends and club mates.

RIP Cyclist, thoughts to all who knew and loved him.

RIP rider and love to TCC.

Just awful and hits home hard when it's one of your local clubs.

My thoughts are with the family and friends of the rider and all their club-mates, especially those present.

Horrific.

RIP.

awful news

Rip rider
That bloody pothole has been reported many time over the last few years.
It has been on fillthathole website since 2009.
According to the ditton Velo fb page the hole was filled today.

Shocking, awful news.

My thoughts with the family, club mates and friends of the rider.

Tragedy

R.I.P. Rider

The cyclist has now been publicly named as Ralph Brazier, of Thames Ditton, Surrey. RIP Ralph.

Father of a family of 3, he went out on a club ride, and never came back.
