Which now leaves two kids without a mother...
This is the final smiling selfie taken by a mother-of two just moments before she crashed her bike and was fatally injured just yards from her home.
Carmen Greenway, 41, took this happy picture of herself and her mother in the background as they rode back from the pub where they had been celebrating a family occasion.
But moment later, just 100 yards from her west London home, Mrs Greenway was flung from the saddle and cracked her skull as her mother, Sherry Bennett, watched on in horror
Quote:
She was rushed to hospital in Paddington, central London, but died six days later from cardiac arrest, leaving the family devastated.
Her husband, Rufus Greenway, 47, said his wife regularly rode back from the pub after a few drinks and knew the route she was riding with her mother well.
He described her as 'a very competent cyclist' but believes she was 'overconfident' and said she may have had one hand on the handlebar after taking the photo.
He said his wife would 'still be alive today' if she had been wearing a helmet and is now calling on the government to make it a legal requirement on Britain's roads

Yeah blame the government for an idiot parent who:
A. Wasn't wearing a helmet whilst riding a bike.
B. Was using a cell fone to take a 'selfie' whilst riding a bike.
C. Was under the influence of alcohol whilst riding a bike.
Gotta feel sorry for the kids in this incredibly stupid and sad story...
