| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was cycling home in a westerly direction at the time. The object almost looked like a firework, but without any noise that I could hear or any smoke that I could see. I might not have heard anything due to the car that followed shortly behind me. I pulled over to the side of the road just after the object disappeared behind the railway bridge in front of me. The man in the car behind me stopped next to me with his passenger side window rolled down and excitedly asked me, 'Did you just see that?!' and asked me what I thought it might have been. I said I thought it was a meteorite. He gave a joyful laugh and drove off. |
