The group had been travelling westbound on New St. when two cyclists near the front of the pack made contact, say Halton police, resulting in one falling to the ground.
Three other cyclists behind them fell off their bikes, too.
Douglas Carter, 66, of Oakville, was one of them.
Paramedics treated Carter before taking him to a Hamilton hospital where he later died of his injuries.
Carter had been wearing his helmet, say police.
