Lew, that was one of the best 45 mins i have ever spent, thank you.
He seemed an extremely funny and brilliant man, and a great loss to the road racing fraternity. How did he die?

He was covering the Skerries road races last weekend. He crashed during Fridays practice session hitting a wall.
He died from his injuries on Saturday. For a few years now he has been acting as a flying doctor at Irish road races, and covered the TT's etc.
