GRAND JUNCTION, COLO. — The State Patrol says a pickup truck driver accused in an accident that seriously injured a cyclist near Gateway has been issued a summons alleging careless driving causing bodily injury.

Troopers say 29-year-old Jenny Daubendiek of Boulder was riding north on Colorado 141 on Sunday when the pickup tried to pass her.

Troopers say 73-year-old pickup driver Vernon F. Brock of Grand Junction encountered oncoming traffic and steered back into the northbound lane, striking the back of the bicycle. Daubendiek was thrown about 50 feet.
