Cycle racing claims another elderly innocent victim
A pensioner suffered serious injuries after a Tour de Yorkshire cyclist
crashed into her during the final stages of the race. The 86-year-old suffered facial injuries and fractures to both arms after the rider, who was with a group made up of several riders behind the main peloton, struck her as she crossed the road to her house. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...njured-5645846 |

Why the hell not?? Cyclists are the chosen ones, and hence can do no wrong, even when maiming and killing the general public. |

Why the hell not?? Maybe because she was illegally crossing a road on which a temporary closure had been put in place specifically to prevent incidents of that kind, so has nobody but herself to blame. I hope the personal liability section of her household contents insurance is able to adequately compensate the cyclist for any damage to his property and injuries caused by her stupidity. You really are a ****. |

But pensioners, not being as Considerably Rich as cyclists, can't afford fridge-freezers or the associated insurance. |

You really are a ****. Not a term I would have used in my characterisation of the gentleman concerned, but probably not far off the mark. |

All the more reason to ban cycle racing/sporting events on public roads. If they want to race their children's toys, they should take a lesson from motorsport, and build purpose built tracks with their own money. After all, as they are considerably richer than everyone else, it won't be too much of a hardship, will it? |

However, not being able to stop in time suggests " brake failure "! |
