Rider's bike: Black geared hybrid, "Ridgeback", flat bar with a wide black "comfy" saddle. Bike looks >5 years old.
Rider's helmet: Red. No injured parties at the scene.
PCSO at scene told me that the rider was "seriously injured but alive". PCSO wouldn't tell me anymore.
Looks like an accident between bus in the main lane of traffic and the rider caught between the bus and any traffic that may have been in the bus lane heading towards Shoreditch High St. Contraflow is in operation while pol-is calculate what happened.
As always, thoughts go out to the cyclist and any other injured parties.
