"If only he'd been wearing a helmet."
"A group of cyclists have been credited with saving the life of a Surrey man whom they saw collapse while he was walking, with one using a tyre lever to remove a blockage from his windpipe and others administering first aid including CPR and directing traffic away from him.
Get Surrey reports that a group of approximately 20 riders from Dittons Velo had been riding along Portsmouth Road in Cobham last Saturday morning when they saw the man, aged around 60, collapse.
He struck his head on the kerb as he fell and while a motorist helped block the road and some of the cyclists directed traffic around the man, others moved him back onto the footway and obtained pillows and blankets from nearby houses."
