Woman injured by bike on River Valley trail speaks out

Helen Shea suffered a broken wrist and femur
, Global News

An Edmonton woman is recovering from a bike crash on a River valley trail, but she wasn’t the one riding the bike. Now, she’s calling on speeding cyclists to slow down, and follow simple trail etiquette.

July 2nd, Helen Shea was walking her dog on a River Valley path when she was hit by a cyclist.

“It happened so fast,” says Shea. “I was on the concrete and when somebody said are you ok. I realized the bike was across my abdomen.”

Shea says she didn’t hear a bell or any kind of warning before she was hit.
