A woman seriously injured after colliding with a car at Mount Maunganui is still recovering in Tauranga Hospital today.
The woman (49) was in a "comfortable" condition at Tauranga Hospital, a spokesman said.
The woman had been cycling along the Matapihi Rd cycleway when the crash happened at about 1.30pm outside the Omanu Golf Club.
People from the golf club ran out on to the road after hearing the cyclist screaming.
The woman lay motionless on the ground as St John arrived at the scene and took her to Tauranga Hospital. Police also closed sections of the road.
The cyclist was initially described as being in a critical condition when she arrived at hospital but her condition was downgraded to serious.
She was in a stable condition last night.
