“She described as having a similar height to her – five foot seven, five foot eight - slim build shaved head, black stubble, dark eyes and in relation to the eyes that you really notice them,” Mr Greaney explained.The court heard Ms Kelly stepped aside to let the cyclist move forward, but he remained at a slow pace near her.
After stopping to talk to a farmer, Ms Kelly said she stopped walking “for some reason” and once again noticed the man walking slowly in front of her.
