Just saw this on their FB page, red and black all closed. Sounds bad

Yep, no details but sounds terrible. Thoughts go out to their family. Sad day.

My sympathies to his family and friends.

First post on FB said it was on Section 13.

While we don't know the cause of the incident, it does scare me to think that this man died riding a trail I've ridden myself many times.

Chronicle article quotes Durham Constabulary "had come off his mountain bike".
