It appears that Bow Road has Cycling Superhighway Nr 2 running along it which is segregated and next to the footway. See. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EcLueMhX...pg&name=medium The pedestrian may have mistakenly assumed that the pavement /included/ CS2 and walked to the edge of it without checking for cycle traffic beforehand and knocked the cyclist off. Happens a lot on the continent. Is that why the cyclist scarpered and has not surrendered himself to the police? |

Is that why the cyclist has not come forward to identify himself? |

I will be alright in five minutes so just carry on." And the cyclist, like a lot of people, doesn't read the local rag or listen to local radio. |
