The 60-year-old Schlins was on the cycle path mentioned around 14:15. Shortly after the Ill bridge he wanted to turn left. However, the cyclist had not done the calculation with a 16-year-old boy from Bludesch who wanted to overtake the older man.

The turning manoeuvre failed miserably, the two collided and fell onto the asphalt. While the young man escaped without injury, the 60-year-old had to be taken to the Feldkirch State Hospital with injuries. There was no damage to the bicycles.
