The same size Road Glove 3 weighs 192 grams, a weight saving of 18%. A Road Glove 2 in size EU 46 weights 234 grams per shoe. As an added bonus, Merrell managed to shave almost 20% off of the shoe weight. The good parts of the Merrell barefoot line did not change: they are zero drop, flexible and have a wide toebox. The Road Glove 3 has been completely redesigned, including both the sole and the uppers. The new sole has much more of an off-road grip and therefore is a good shoe for running on mixed surfaces. The Merrell Road Glove 3 is a different story. While the Road Glove 2 (with its flat sole) is a good shoe for hard and even surfaces, I would not trust them for off-road running. The suburban area where I live has a lot of off-road possibilities, but I always have to combine it with running on tarmac and other hard surfaces. When I run, I always try to hit as many off-road trails as possible. The primary reason for my change of heart is the new sole. "You always think it won’t happen to you but seeing what has happened to my friend has really drummed it home how helpless you are as a cyclist. I haven't cycled for a week because of it and I don't know when my friend will go out again – it's going to be a big thing."Īnyone with information or dash cam footage is asked to contact Thames Valley Police, quoting the reference number 43220430762.I was never really interested in the Merrell Road Glove until it reached version three. It's bad enough to hit a deer or animal and not do something about it, but to leave a person? She's terrified that she was unconscious and helpless. It's just unbelievable. "But remarkably, despite the bike being destroyed, she's fine. "She needs to wait a few weeks to see if there is a bleed on the brain as sometimes it doesn't show up straight away," he said. Her friend explained the rider suffered "horrific" cuts and "looks like she has been for a couple of rounds" but is otherwise "doing fine".

"It's really difficult as a cyclist to be fully on the grass verge so she would have been out a little bit but the driver didn't stop or slow down - her bike is completely totalled." "She was going down a single-track road and the driver was coming up and I don't know if they didn't see her but they hit her head on," Mr Hayward said. The friend of the cyclist said a couple walking nearby recalled seeing the driver "shouting" at the woman before "dragging her to the side of the road". "It's beyond scary because she could have been paralysed – she is terrified that she was unconscious because she was so helpless." "Unbelievable in the sense that not only did he hit her but then he moved her body away from the middle of the road, left her and drove off. "It is quite unbelievable," Paul Hayward told the Oxford Mail.
The driver then left the scene, prompting Thames Valley Police to appeal for any other witnesses to come forward. The victim needed six hours of hospital treatment after being hit by the driver in Oxfordshire, on Pulpit Hill between Sparsholt and Childrey on Sunday 25 September, with Thames Valley Police confirming no arrests have been made.Ī friend of the rider said it is "quite unbelievable" that the driver of the Vauxhall Vivaro van was spotted by a couple walking nearby moving the unconscious rider. A driver who collided with a cyclist - seriously injuring the woman in her 30s - then allegedly shouted at the unconscious rider before "dragging her to the side of the road" and fleeing the scene.
