Son Of Nick Craig Dies In His Sleep At Age 15

by 19

We’re deeply saddened to report the death of Charlie Craig, U16 National Trophy Cyclocross Series Winner 2016 and talented mountain biker. His father Nick Craig, long term friend of Singletrack, affectionately known in the office as ‘the nicest man in cycling’, announced Charlie’s death at the weekend on Instagram, saying,“Yesterday our world fell apart. Our beautiful lovely little boy Charlie went to sleep but never woke up. I don’t know what else to write just now but he will be with his little angel niece in the wonderful pictured above, Evie Kate Cooper.”

The comments and messages sent in response leave little doubt that Charlie was as nice a lad as his father. The thoughts of everyone here at Singletrack and grit.cx are with all of Charlie’s family and friends.

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
