Thanks for the update. This makes much more sense. It just didn't make sense when I rode by the scene why the deceased was lying in a dirt pullout by the side of the road, and no wreckage whatsoever, not even a trace of a bicycle. It just didn't seem possible that a bicyclist could have been struck from behind and would have ended up in that dirt pullout, rather than in the middle of the road. Not sure why the CHP call log referenced VEH VS BICYCLIST but maybe that was the initial obvious interpretation by the first responder on the scene. Not sure why this news makes me feel better, given that there is still a deceased body by the side of the road and a family left to grieve, but it does just knowing that it was not another bicyclist hit and run..


This pic shows where the deceased was lying, in the dirt pullout behind the patrol car on a relatively straight section of roadway on Redwood Rd.
