I was told that a Falang was riding a bicycle this morning when he was hit and killed by an automobile.

Anyone got any information or hear about this? This morning around 8:30 up towards the elephant camps.

Yeah, I also heard. His name is Mike so I've been told; 65-year-old American who lives at Hillside.

The driver was an off-duty policeman, but don't quote me on any of this.

Via email to me this evening...

Dear Expats Club Members,

It is with regret that I, as CEC president, inform you that Michael Youngfellow, a founding

member of the Chiangmai Expats Club, was tragically killed on Saturday, September 9, at

approximately 7:30 a.m., in a roadway accident while riding his bicycle in Chiangmai. Without

going into details (due to an ongoing investigation) I can tell you that while he and a cycling

companion were riding their bicycles near Superhighway, Michael sustained fatal injuries after

being struck by a fast-moving vehicle.

Khun Nai, Michael’s wife, is currently unavailable to share information about pending religious

services (cremation ceremony) which at this time is scheduled for sometime on Tuesday,

September 12.

Oh dear...what a tradgedy...you would think on a pushbike you would be safe enough..but not here obviously.

As requested in a report, this topic was split. Your separate comments about traffic safety are now in a topic, "Cyclist Safety in Chiang Mai."

Again, our condolences to the family and friends.
