OAKLAND — A bicyclist died Thursday afternoon after she collided head-on with an SUV in the Oakland hills, police said Friday.

She was identified by the coroner’s office as Tatyana Schmid, 28, of Oakland, who according to friends and social media sites was a blogger and tour guide for Backroads, a well-known hiking and biking company.

The collision happened about 4:30 p.m. Thursday in the 7000 block of Skyline Boulevard near Elverton Drive.

Police said the Schmid was riding eastbound and approaching a bend in the road. At the same time a Chevrolet Traverse was traveling westbound, also approaching the bend in the road.

Police said the bicyclist veered into oncoming traffic and collided head-on with the SUV. She died at the scene.

The SUV driver, a man who lives in another city, remained on the scene and is cooperating with investigators, police said.

Police said drugs or alcohol were not a factor in the collision but that it appears Schmid may have been speeding.

The collision remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call traffic investigators at 510-777-8570.

In a post on the social media site Couchsurfing, Schmid said she was born and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and besides being a seasonal trip leader for Backroads, she sang in two Bay Area folk bands, and recently started teaching yoga in Berkeley.

She said on the site she loved to bike everywhere, dancing, cooking and eating good food.

Her mission, she said, was to “live life to the fullest, sing, dance, be active, see beautiful places, interact with the world, make connections, capture moments, live in the present, love, create and share.”
