Some 200 bikers this morning recalled Cliff Micallef in the way they remember him best - riding a bicycle.

They took part in a bike ride from the Luxol Grounds to mark the anniversary since he was struck down by a car as he cycled on the coast road in preparation for the Lifecycle expedition.

His wife Shirley waved the flag at the start of the ride and his three children took part.

The event was organised by the Cycling Federation and Malta Sports Council. Several Lifecycle cyclists also took part.

Mrs Micallef said the year since her husband was killed had been 'like climbing Mt Everest' but she was very grateful for the support she found from family, friends.

Mrs Micallef said she hoped that justice would be done and she had confidence in the law courts. Everyone, she said, had to shoulder responsibility for his actions.
