Ghost bike

(lost) Deep Lee

Erection date: 26/10/11

Inscription

Deep Lee, 24 years old. 3rd Oct. 2011. Rest in peace.

Killed on the first day of the new King's Cross campus of Central St Martin's College. We photographed the flowers that were placed the following day and the ghost bike installed a few weeks later. It was moved to the south side of Gray's Inn Road, near the tree. And then by 2016 it had gone.

Site: Deep Lee (1 memorial)

N1, King's Cross

Cyclist killed by a lorry. The 2013 inquest report: "... unsurprising that the collision took place.... cyclists and trucks don't mix..." 

2013/14: Some very minimal infrastructure was installed which requires cyclists to share pavement space with pedestrians on one of the most populated street corners in London. Shamefully unworkable and inadequate.
