Now on the BBC website. I've had to read the name several times just to actually believe it.
An amazing friend who will be missed enormously and an exceptional talent on the bike, but more importantly an exceptional human being.
Thoughts with all touched by this tragedy.
Sympathy and condolences to everyone concerned.
Even though we know and understand the risks involved, it never makes the loss any easier.
Thoughts are with family and friends.
Really sad news, painfully young climbers with everything to look forward to.

Sad news- one of the men killed is a member of this forum
What user name did he post under? We know many characters on here only by their user names.
To all concerned, so sorry to hear of your loss.
Oh was that him?!
:0( hugs to you all
Very sad news thoughts to all family and friends.
Terrible news and heartfelt sympathy to all those affected.
I lost two friends in a climbing accident on the Ben 21 years ago. It's important to draw strength from one another and to grieve well; cry for them but also cherish what they brought to your lives.
Ach, dreadful thing to happen. Just dreadful. Love to all affected from the clan here.

No words 🙁

RIP chris.
It goes without saying that Busty and his girlfriend (who's name has not yet been released) will be sorely missed too - RIP guys.
Love it tom , that image portrays chris personality perfectly.
Start a new thread for him Tom. When you are ready, obviously.
Look at him in that photo, what a legend.
Condolences to all affected. Terrible news
Sad news, I've have lost a few friends in climbing accidents over the years, and most of them far too young like those here.
Awful.
Go Chris!!! Pull a weeeeeeeelie 🙂
Happy times. That's him in a nutshell. Thanks for posting it, Tom.
Let's all give it all we can in his honour.
Richpips- out of interest do you have any photos from Hit The North 2008, the first one? Chris and I won the pairs and I'd love to give a photo to his parents and to have on my mantlepiece but can't find any anywhere. I know you were there.
Truly sorry to hear this fellas.. I guess, the only positive is they died doing what they loved.. Oh, & Luke, I think I have photos of you guys somewhere.
Teeto- if you could pimm me on facebook or the other channel that'd be appreciated.
Ok fella. Will do.
munrobiker, just had a quick scan, I think I may have a pic let me have your email.
It's lleebb76 at googlemail dot com. Thanks so much.
I love that pic of Chris - he had just come storming past me on an absolute flyer of a lap. Days like that to remember.
Such a great guy will be missed sorely. What a tragedy.

Just set this up for next weekend. We owe Glencoe Mountain Rescue a lot at the moment. Anything you can give would be greatly appreciated.
Donated. X
Absolutely devastating news!
Its reasons for what you read that you avoid it, 4 times i looked at this and didnt want to open it, so young and so happy, what a terrible thing to happen.
Condolences to all friends and family, my thoughts are with you!
Everyone's generosity has been astounding- you've already helped raise £500 before midnight. I'm sure this will mean a lot to the victim's families.
Good idea for the fundraising- here's to never needing to use it!
Donated....rip and condolences...
Respect and condolences.
Thanks to everyone for their generous donations.
As someone who has had need of mountain rescue and the chopper before, I'm sure Chris would be very grateful for you support
