Former teacher Colin Rae, 83, died in a crash last Wednesday morning as he cycled near the University of Cumbria campus.

He was a founder member of the Carlisle Cycling Campaign – now Cycling Carlisle – and was the group’s first chairman in 1992.

A lorry driver, 61, from Carlisle, was later arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and failing to stop after an accident.
