On cycle deaths, I prefer to remember the fallen, then remind myself that more die in cars, and as much because of speed as because of it being the common mode.

Stealth Bomber vs Hyndai. Cycllist lost his life. Extremely violent crash. Off-road ebikes going in excess of 50mph are not only illegal but very dangerous. Its amazing these are being sold but more amazing people are dumb enough to ride at these speeds without helmets or much else thats required at motorcycle speeds, with crappy half assed bike brakes!!!
These incidents make our city more and more biker un-friendly everyday as motorists start to get pissed

My stupid question: did the biker actually T-bone the rear quarter of the car ?
Yes it appeared that the driver of car made a left turn and either didn't see the bike rider or didn't estimate his ability to cover so much ground so quickly as most bikers don't travel at 50mph. And yes that is the damage the body/bike did to the SUV. The sound was so dramatic we all thought it was two vehicle crash which happens here about every few weeks. Very tragic and sad.
