The man, who is believed to be elderly, was riding his bike along Stock Way North near to Silver Street when he was involved in a collision with a Ford Focus.

The ambulance service was called just after 1pm and paramedics were sent to the scene, along with the air ambulance.

The cyclist suffered a head injury and then a cardiac arrest. Paramedics attempted resuscitation but the man died at the scene.

Stock Way North remains closed while the scene is investigated by police.

Best Wishes to the rider's friends and family in what can only be a difficult time.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
