Cyclist was just 4 days in to riding 23 days of Tour de France distances through London Parks for Mind (mental health charity.) Feel gutted for him.
Statistically I’d imagine he’s got several more crashes to come should he continue. Terrible idea.
Royal Parks are going to look dimly on anyone who takes a pedestrian down. Let’s hope his insurance is up to scratch.

Came across a ped and cyclist collision on my commute home today. Both pretty beat up. It was on that funny bit of cycle path that loops around the cafe where West Carriage Drive meets South Carriage Drive in Hyde Park.
Didn't see the collision only the aftermath, pedestrian was on the floor, conscious, but painful shoulder, being looked after by passers by and cyclist clearly in a lot of shock. Managed to get him sat down with a drink of water, suspected dislocated shoulder and some other grazing for him by the looks of things. Ambulance and police on scene got them both tidied up and in ambulances to hospital.
