Sydney cyclist seriously injured

Sydney cyclist Bryan Martin has been involved in a serious accident with truck. He was dead at the scene but revived and has been on life support, although his chances of survival are not great.

Martin was a highly talented rider who made the Australian national team as a junior but then had a serious accident on the track which left his left arm permanently damaged. He has always used his bike for racing, transport and recreation, and was well known and respected in both the racing and touring communities. He has lived for the last few years in Queensland, riding with the Samford Velos. The local cycling community's thoughts are with Bryan and his partner Sue.
