Whomever coined the term "Hunger Games on wheels" needs a kick in the arse. It somehow makes out that people are expected to die during the event rather than realising deaths in ultra-events are just a microcosm of those cyclists experience all the time
@Oliver Schick - They said there was a metre between the road and the barrier where Mike was riding. So presumably they are saying that the driver was on the shoulder. Looking at Google maps down there, there's a shoulder but I've no idea how long that continues for etc.
