Very sad. How horribly ironic given Chris's relentless work to make cycling safer

Very sad news.


In the road.cc article linked to in the Tour de France thread, there is a police statement saying that they've spoken to the driver and examined the vehicle, but they're still looking for more witnesses. Although that doesn't mean it wasn't a hit-and-run of course.
