This is crazy but I know the cyclist involved and the bike as it used to be mine (blue Raleigh Arena). The rider involved purchased it off me and I only found out about the crash when he messaged me about a week ago wanting a receipt as he had a crash and could claim the price of the bike back if he had one.
I saw some pictures of the crash and needless to say was shocked to hear it had happened to him and also to see a picture of my ex bike completely flattened on the Evening Standard.
Basically the rider collided with a HGV had life threatening injuries and was airlifted to hospital but thankfully has now made a full recovery!
My condolences to all those who have died on the roads and their families...
