Ed is what I was told his name was.It was a fatal injury to his head,I was pacing the bunch at about 36kms .the bunch was two abreast and neat,then the horrible sound a loud thump and the clatter of bicycles hitting the ground.I raised my arm up and slowed the bunch down to a halt.my wife had looked back and started screaming-there has been a horrible accident.I went back to help it was a carnage,bikes and cyclist were all over the road.So sad to see so many fellow cyclist injured and pain and ED may he RIP. Most of the injured cyclist are freinds of mine,Di broke her leg,this is so sad the few ladies that we have cycling with us and they get hurt. I spoke to a few witnesess and went back later to the accident site, the police were still there and the truck driver,I spoke to them and witnesses(cyclist) all had the same response- This accident was not the truck drivers fault but the cyclist that went into the centre of the road and with the suction ot the truck he was pulled under. To all his friends and family my heart goes out to you. ED RIPCinio Branco2008-07-07 12:01:11
