Lord,
Grant me the WD-40 to move those things that are stuck, the Duck tape to fasten those things that are loose, And the wisdom to know the difference.
Amen
was just reading about it - very sad news. No details yet but I can't imagine he was pi**ing about?
Someone sent me a postcard picture of the earth. On the back it said, "Wish you were here."

Thats sad news.
If I wanted to find a review for a bike those on his website seemed well written and informative.
I read on MCN that he was a founder member of Fast Bikes.
Totally gutted. I loved his comments and reviews in MCN. A billiant journo and will be sorely missed.
All the best to his family

tragic, very sad news. A regular MCN and Bike mag contributor and columnist. He will be missed.
Thing is it can happen to anyone, anytime at a micro seconds notice. We should not place any blame at all on him by inferring he was " pissing about" ...FFS we know nothing !
IMHO he was the best journo - made all the tech stuff easy to follow, and just told it straight, no messing.
Will miss reading his articles.
Very sad.
I guarantee some journo nob will write an obit saying 'he died doing something he loved' - what crashing and screaming?

Think you mis-read or mis-interpreted Steeeve666's comment.
It is a sad loss indeed, is there any more about the incident yet?
