Cyclist killed near Notting Hill Gate

A young woman was killed yesterday after going under an HGV by Notting Hill Gate junction. I'm passing this on simply because it hasn't been the news, and I hope it prompts everyone to take a little more care.

We had it the next day. There's a story in the paper tomorrow. A friend of the victim had to email us to tell us the name was spelled wrong in the police press release, for which they barely apologised.http://www.londoninformer.co.uk/london-news/london-local-news/2009/02/06/woman-run-over-by-lorry-in-notting-hill-gate-113489-22870974/

I don't know either. Understandably, those who knew her are upset.

How dreadful. I wonder why it hasn't been reported - the Evening Standard are usually pretty keen on dead cyclists.
