A Canberra court will hear an inquest into the death of a world-renowned British cyclist during a coast-to-coast race earlier this year.

Mike Hall, 35, was killed early on March 31 after a fatal collision with a car south of Canberra, at the intersection of the Monaro Highway and Williamsdale Road.

Mike Hall was involved in a fatal collision with a car near the intersection of the Monaro Highway and Williamsdale Road.

He was competing in the Indian Pacific Wheel Race, an unsupported, solo ride covering nearly 5500 kilometres from Fremantle to Sydney, that crosses the Nullarbor Plain then passes through Adelaide and Melbourne.

Mr Hall was one of 70 riders who set off from Fremantle on March 18.
