I didn’t see them!!! Sadly that is the most common excuse used when a 4 wheeled vehicle such as a car hits someone on a 2 wheeled vehicle!!!! I’m not saying that was the case here, because I don’t know the details but more than likely…!!!
Some cyclists just don’t understand what share the road means!

You’re right you don’t know the case. The bicyclists lost its breaks on Ross Hill and collided with the SUV.
So glad I passed through there earlier unscathed.
Pedestrians and bicyclists beware.
This is a weird screwy intersection. Poor design. Pedestrian area and bike lane on downhill part of Fortuna Blvd funnel everything into a blind section and brush. Very poor visibility.
Three of the four approaches to this intersection have bad visibility.
This was in my rear view mirror. Saw a kids bicycle laying in the crosswalk and someone running. It looked like a child – maybe a teenager.
Many cars therefore there were likely many witnesses.
‘Hope and pray for full recovery.
