A 13-year-old boy who died when the pedal bike he was riding was in collision with a bus in Belle Vue has been named by police.
The family of Ryan Daniel McGarry, of Coverdale Crescent, Ardwick, said he was an "outdoors type" who loved going to the Army Cadets and swimming.
Greater Manchester Police were called to the collision on Hyde Road, near the Showcase Cinema, on Sunday evening.
Ryan was taken to hospital with head injuries but died on Tuesday evening.
He was a student at Cedar Mount High School in Gorton and should have been starting Year 9 next week.
His father Daniel McGarry described Ryan as "a loving lad, very affectionate, with a soft kind-hearted nature."
He said: "All Ryan's family and friends will not only miss his terrible jokes but his constantly smiling face."
The collision on Hyde Road happened on 26 August at 2015 BST and officers are appealing for witnesses to contact Greater Manchester Police.
