Talk about a bad day for a Kelowna cyclist. A middle aged man was sent to hospital with a suspected broken leg after he was hit Wednesday afternoon by a pickup truck heading north on Ethel.
The biker was believed to be darting in and out of traffic when he sideswiped the startled driver of the truck.
No charges will be laid against the motorists.
The cyclist may received a ticket for not wearing a helmet and will have to pay the repair bill for the broken mirror on the truck.
