The story in the OP was about a deliberate crime committed by a cyclist
against a lone female (unfortunately, not as rare an occurrence as it
ought to be).

Your citation seems to be about a traffic accident.

What's the connection (if any)?

Indeed - how can a cyclist throw a bicycle at someone whilst sitting on it?

Has to be a pedestrian by definition.

This also begs the question of why a paying road user would suddenly decide to throw their bicycle at a passing subsidised road user without provocation?
The primary road user was walking facing oncoming traffic as recommended by the Highway Code.
I suppose there is no possibly that the tertiary road user illegally sounded it's horn aggressively and used it's vehicle as a weapon.

Only if you're a ****ing idiot. If you're pushing a bicycle, you're a cyclist. You may have different road rules to follow while pushing it, but you are still a cyclist, just as I am still a motorist while push starting my car.

Why are you calling a cyclist a paying road user when they pay nothing? Why are you calling a driver of a car a subsidised user when they pay two taxes cyclists don't?

The primary road user was walking facing oncoming traffic as recommended by the Highway Code.
I suppose there is no possibly that the tertiary road user illegally sounded it's horn aggressively and used it's vehicle as a weapon.


If the cyclist was walking on the road instead of the pavement, she had every right to get annoyed.

No doubt the cyclist undertook a large lorry with poor vision and steering.
