A woman who died in a motorbike crash was a "one-of-a-kind" daughter, her parents said.

Cora Bacon, 20, was a pillion passenger when the bike was in collision with two vehicles on Friday on the A444 Jimmy Hill Way, Coventry.

She died at the scene, while the rider of the bike, a 20-year-old man, remains in hospital with a broken pelvis.

They added she always supported her family and friends and her death "has devastated so many people".

"Support messages from everyone have been overwhelming but is lovely to see the impact Cora had in the lives of others," her mother said.
