Just read about this on the beeb – apologies if already covered elsewhere….grew up in Croydon, know sandy lane south well….any death is sad, cycling or known person related or not…such a shame.

Erm; you do know it was a year ago? I too just saw it was again high on the BBC ‘most read’ list but assumed that’s as a response to him being shown on the SPOTY tributes last night and a few people (me included) thinking ‘Eh? When?’ and going and looking it up.

But RIP indeed, seemed a genuinely nice guy according to his peers.

Really – bugger (checks bottle).. having got married and had a kid in the last yr I knew time was flying but sheesh I think I need to slow down a bit…retreats slowly back to the dark corner of STW in embarrassment…..

That’s awful. Just come up on my Android app too. Not a nice thing for his family to read again…
