Cyclist killed on London Bridge named as Chris Tandy

He died on Saturday night shortly after leaving London Bridge Station and heading north across the river. He lived in Hackney.

The fatal collision involved a car and is being described by friends as a "tragic accident".

Mr Tandy, who had been training to take part in a charity cycle ride, was employed by the British Council.

"Chris Tandy worked in the British Council's Education team as the manager for our Going Global conference, and was a hugely talented, dedicated, respected and a liked colleague to all he worked with, who will be dearly missed," said British Council education director Rebecca Hughes.

Flowers have been laid by the side of the roadway.
