Cyclists Crash Leaves Tragic Fatal Consequence: A Tourist Loses Life

A tragic incident occurred on the Wohlenberger Wiek, a semicircular bay in the southwest part of Wismar Bay on the Baltic Sea coast of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. A 60-year-old vacationer from Mönchengladbach, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, lost her life in a bike accident.

According to the available information, the accident occurred on a bike path along the Wohlenberger Wiek during a bike ride with her husband at Wismar Bay. The woman attempted to overtake a larger group of cyclists, but a collision happened in a poorly visible right bend.

Despite wearing a bike helmet, the vacationer suffered severe head and lung injuries. Resuscitation efforts were initiated at the scene, and she was taken by rescue helicopter to the Lübeck clinic. Unfortunately, she later succumbed to her injuries.

The racing cyclist involved in the accident, a 49-year-old from the same region, was only slightly injured in the fall.

The Wohlenberger Wiek is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, with a bike path that runs along its coast. The bay is part of the larger Wismar Bay and is located in the southwest part of the bay.
