Police are still trying to identify a cyclist, believed to be in his 40s, who has now died after a crash with a van on the A913 near Cupar on Thursday.
The collision happened when a white Volkswagen Crafter van struck a white mountain bike on the A913 Cupar to Newburgh road on Thursday morning at about 6.45am, around half a mile east of the A92 Parbroath crossroads.
The injured biker was rushed to Ninewells Hospital in Dundee in a critical condition and has now died.
Detectives believe he may have gone shopping in Perth on Wednesday and might have links to Cupar. They have now released a detailed description of him in the hope that members of the public come forward and help to identify him.
Sergeant Nicola Young from the Fife Road Policing Unit said: "We have made extensive enquiries to try and establish who the man may be. It is believed he could have links to Cupar and we believe he was shopping in Perth on Wednesday 25 September.
“The man is described as slim to medium build and around six-feet tall. He is white, with a brown, greying short beard and has brown/sandy coloured, thinning hair.
"The man was wearing a black fleece with a yellow collar that had an embroidered National Geographic logo on the left. He was also wearing black dress trousers and white Nike shoes. He is described as speaking with a local accent.
