The 45-year-old Robic was widely regarded as the world’s best ultra-endurance cyclist, setting a host of records in the discipline and winning RAAM five times, including this year.

According to a preliminary report from the Kranj Police Authority, the accident occurred at around 2:00 p.m. when Robic was struck by a car driven by a 55-year-old local resident. Robic died at the scene.

The report noted that the cause of the accident is still under investigation.
