A bicyclist was killed Sunday afternoon after colliding with an SUV on Mines Road in a remote area south of Livermore, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The crash was reported about 2:30 p.m. on Mines Road near San Antonio Valley Road in Santa Clara County not far from Mount Hamilton, where the bicyclist was heading northbound and a 2010 Land Rover was headed southbound.
As they were approaching a curve in the road from opposite directions, both the cyclist and the SUV crossed over the double yellow lines and collided head-on, the CHP said.
The bicyclist, described only as female, was ejected from her bike and died at the scene. Her name has not been released.
The wreck is under investigation. Alcohol or drugs are not considered to be factors in the crash, the CHP said.
