National Funeral for the Unknown Cyclist

Linclons Inn Fields, London. Sat 13 Oct 2018



 

 The horse-drawn hearse arrives for the procession

 and so do the cyclists

 

 

 

 Traffic STOP Killing Cyclists

 

 Members of Tony Spink's family had posters with his picture. He was killed cycling through Wakefield city centre

 By a lorry driver who didn't stop, dragging him under his lorry as he hung onto the windscreen wipers and
  thumped on the side of the truck. His mangled bike was pulled from the lorry by the driver at a layby and
 then dumped in bushes miles away. The driver was jailed for two years.

 

 

 A young girls sits beside the driver on the hearse with a 'Stop Killing Cyclists' poster

 'Traffice Stop Killing with Pollution'
