    British Teacher, 50s, dies in cycle accident..

    RTHK reporting the basics.. not much info in here:

    The man was riding uphill along Bride's Pool Road towards Tai Mei Tuk. On reaching a bend, he reportedly lost his balance and hit his head on the ground.

    The man was taken to Alice Ho Mui Ling Hospital in an unconscious state and declared dead about an hour later.

    Thoughts and sympathy to his family. There’s never a good time to die, but just. before Christmas is tragic.

    From the article below it reads like he was riding with a group and lost control. Seems no car involved.

    Report says a helmet was used. Must have been quite a speedy descent.
