Ethan Boyes cause of death
Ethan Boyes was regarded as having a friendly personality. Many people must be curious to know the Ethan Boyes cause of death in light of the recent news.
Officers were summoned to Arguello Boulevard, which is south of Washington Boulevard, at around 4 p.m. on Tuesday to look into a complaint of an accident involving an automobile and a bike, according to a statement made by the United States Park Police on Thursday.
The statement said,
“The cyclist, an adult male, was transported to the hospital with life-threatening injuries and later pronounced deceased,”
“The driver of the vehicle was also transported to the hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries. The crash remains under investigation by the United States Park Police.”
The cyclist Ethan Boyes suffered fatal injuries and was taken to a hospital, where he eventually died unexpectedly. Paramedics also took the car’s driver to the hospital for injuries that weren’t thought to be life-threatening.
The collision is currently under investigation. They failed to say if drink or drugs were involved in the event or whether the driver was detained.
Ethan Boyes cause of death has left the community inconsolable.
A Dangerous Intersection:
Before Tuesday’s deadly collision, transportation advocates had been calling for protected bike lanes on Arguello.
Luke Bornheimer, a proponent of environmentally friendly transportation, said that the petition has his full support and that Arguello needs protected bike lanes immediately. “Arguello is a critical route for anyone who uses sustainable transportation, such as bikes.”
Bornheimer claimed that because Arguello connects the Presidio to the car-free Kennedy boardwalk in Golden Gate Park, cyclists in the Richmond commonly utilise it to get to other parts of the city.
“This death, while tragic, I think highlights the need for protected bike lanes. We know that the way to prevent people from being killed is to build protected bike lanes to separate bikes from car traffic, which will encourage more people to get on bikes.”
One cyclist was killed while riding in San Francisco in 2022, compared to four in both 2015 and 2016.
At Aguascalientes, Mexico, on September 24, 2018, Boyes established the time trial record. In a “flying start” time trial, the competitor does not start from a standing position but rather accelerates immediately after crossing the starting line.
Who was Ethan Boyes?
Boyes, a San Francisco native, is recognised by USA Cycling as the current holder of the 500-meter “track time trial – flying start” national record. On September 24, 2018, in Aguascalientes, Mexico, a new record was set. Boyes is a dedicated rider who took home the 2018 and 2019 Masters Track National Championships for USA Cycling. The death has left the cycling community in a state of bewilderment.
The fact that he was also one of the world’s fastest sprinters was only a pleasant coincidence. He just won three world championship trophies last year in Los Angeles, and he continues to hold the world and U.S. records in a number of different sprinting events, including the kilo and the flying 200m. Also, he has a number of various sprinting national records.

A man who gave with no strings, who had a sense of humor like few others, a role model & inspiration to elite track cyclists who was a national & international champion & both a great friend & in many ways like a big brother to my youngest. I met him the night before his 1st time to ride VSC in ’14(southbay wheelmen time trial) on a friday night when my kid was training. The picture below is after Elite Nat’s in ’17 when I forced him to go take a lap at Encino Velodrome to add one to his list. He didn’t wanna go, he was tired from competing & his ride back to San Fran was coming early so I had to pull rank & say “you’re crashing on my couch, go gotta do what I say…it’s my house” …….afterwards he thanked me. That was him, gracious in all his interactions. When Jordan raced out of state in CO & MN as well as her many times in SF. He always took care & looked after her. I could always reassure Lily “don’t worry, Ethan will be there” to ease her worries. Rest in Peace my friend”

One of the worst things anyone can go through in life is losing a loved one. Any journey must have a destination at the end. The person’s time on earth has regrettably come to an end now that they have died.
We wish him eternal peace and send our thoughts and prayers to his loved ones, family, friends. May he rest in peace.

As a member of the Organisational Team of the UCI World Masters Trach Championships in Manchester UK, I’d like to express our shock and sadness on hearing of Ethan’s passing. His forever engaging smile whenever he wasn’t actually competing typified the event and Ethan as a person. Today we as a community wherever we reside in the world has a reason to be sad
