'We're going to miss him a lot. There's going to be a huge gap in our community without him being here.'
Legarda is the latest cyclist to be struck and killed in the Bay Area.
The California Highway Patrol said an Acura sedan was traveling northbound on Old Cañada Road late Monday when it hit Legarda, who was riding in the same direction. Legarda died at the scene and the incident is under investigation. Pen Velo club members said Old Cañada Road was considered one of the safest routes for cyclists, but in recent years they have lost a number of members and have seen more cars flying through with no regard to those sharing the road with them.
Legarda's death comes days after champion cyclist Ethan Boyes was also struck and killed in San Francisco's Presidio. And in San Jose this week, a cyclist survived a hit-and-run collision near North First Street and Interstate 880. Friends of Lester Legarda,37, have built a memorial for him on Cañada Rd. Where CHP says the cyclist was struck and killed, Monday night.
