The Iowa State Patrol says a bicyclist participating in the third annual “pEDaling for Pancreatic Cancer” fundraiser was killed after being hit by a car.
The Muscatine Journal reports that the crash happened just after 9:30 a.m. Saturday in West Liberty.
The victim was identified as 40-year-old Lisa Kuhn, of Muscatine.
Patrol investigators say a 28-year-old West Liberty man was driving a car southbound when he hit the bicyclist, who was also southbound.
The cycling event gave riders a choice of 100-, 65-, 30- or 15-mile routes. Monday raised goes to support pancreatic cancer research.
The crash remains under investigation.
