Police tape (CC licensed by freefotouk on Flickr)Police appeal after cyclist found seriously injured in road
Police in Northumberland have launched an appeal for information after a cyclist was discovered seriously injured lying in the road between Benridge and Pigdon, near Morpeth.
The incident, believed to have happened at around midday on Saturday 16 February, took place near the Benridge Riding Stables.
The victim, a 63-year-old man thought to be from the Seaton Sluice area, was found unconscious and taken to hospital for treatment, where he is said to be in a critical but stable condition.
Northumbria Police are particularly keen to trace an elderly couple, thought to be from the Seaton Sluice area, who stopped and tried to call an ambulance but left before officers arrived.
They have also asked anyone with dashcam footage or other information to come forward and can be contacted on 101 quoting reference number 1136 160219.

Usual ugly Pinarello, bumps and curves where they aren't needed. And, according to Mapdec, not well built.
