Only met the dude a couple of times, but he was a top geezer.
Killed on Friday near Cuckney in Notts. Went to overtake a car in a silly place at about 90, to meet another coming the other way. He only glanced the car, but he ended up through a hedge and into a field. His helmet came off in the accident. He died at the scene. He'd gone out for a ride on his ZX7R, after having a row with his girlfriend. He was 27.
RIP mate.
