Family tribute to 'caring' cyclist who died in crash

A man who died after being hit by a car in Nottinghamshire was "positive, kind and caring", his family has said.

Trizain Meyler was riding a bicycle along Blyth Road, Harworth, on 19 August when he was struck at about 02:00 BST.

Police said that, despite the best efforts of emergency services, the 20-year-old died at the scene.

"His laugh was contagious, his loyalty was solid and he had a strength about him that meant he didn't let things get him down," his family said.

Detectives said Meyler, who lived in Harworth, had been cycling towards the village from Blyth Services, where he worked.

The driver involved stopped at the scene and has been assisting officers with their investigation, they added.

No arrests have been made.

Continuing their tribute, Meyler's family said: "Trizain was such a positive, kind and caring young man.

"He was considerate of the people, animals and the world around him and he never judged a single soul.

"He was very family-orientated and had enough love in him to make a difference in this world.

"Trizain absolutely loved riding his pedal-assist bike.

"It was a huge part of who he was and brought him so much happiness and freedom.

"He loved being out on his bike and would ride whenever he got the chance.

"His brothers, sister, cousins, family, girlfriend and friends have lost someone who should have been alongside them for so many more years.

"We are all truly heartbroken and devastated.

"His zest for life showed in the strength and determination he put into everything he did.

"He really did live his life and there was still so much more of it he should have had."
