Timothy Cale, of Main Road, Shorwell, appeared before a judge at the Isle of Wight Crown Court on Monday, January 13.
At a previous hearing on Tuesday, December 10, the 58-year-old denied causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving, on Main Road in Shorwell, near Newport on the island on June 5, 2022.
He was charged following the death of Professor Simon McQueen-Mason, former chair of Materials Biology at the Centre for Novel Agricultural Products at the University of York.
The York scientist was cycling in the Isle of Wight when he died.
The emergency services answered a 999 call that a cyclist had collided with a Land Rover Freelander, near the junction with New Barn Lane at 10.15am on June 5, 2022,.
Mr McQueen-Mason was pronounced dead by medical experts a short time later.
Cale’s case was adjourned for a trial at the same venue on November 3.
He was granted unconditional bail until that date.
The trial is estimated to last four to five days.
