The collision happened at Headington Roundabout (London Road/North Way) at around 8.39am.

Two ambulances were at the scene, one of which had finished their shift and came across the accident, stopping to assist until the second ambulance that had been dispatched arrived.

South Central Ambulance Service said the rider sustained "very minor injuries" and was treated by the ambulance crews without the need to be taken to hospital.
