Cyclist Injured In Crash

A 30-year-old man who pedaled his bicycle into the path of a car was hospitalized following the crash.

The man was riding in an alley and attempted to cross Boardman Avenue just north of Washington Street when he crossed into the path of a motorist. The 52-year-old Cedar man who was driving told police he’d just turned onto Boardman when the cyclist appeared out of nowhere. Traverse City police were called Friday at 1:30pm to investigate.

Capt. Jim Bussell says the cyclist woke up later that day in the hospital and couldn’t remember what happened. Investigators determined the cyclist was at fault, but no citations were issued.
