Accident on A14

[Pid]

Just seen an accident on A14, looks like a cyclist (racing) was hit by an Audi Quattro, ambulance was at the scene. There was another Quattro and an 80 Quattro with him pulled over on the hard shoulder. Probably on the way to AITP. Hope all are ok.

Ouch. As a cyclist myself I wouldn't cycle down the A14 even if you paid me....

It was some sort of race. There were quite a few competing when I was on my way AITP. People were having to jump lanes every few hundred metres to avoid them

I think that road's used for Time trialling
Unfortunately, busy roads are popular amongst the die hard TT'ers due to their speedy nature by virtue of getting 'sucked along' by cars and lorries
They have a 100mile TT on the A417 between Swindon and Cirencester and its another fatality waiting to happen (was one last year)
