Yeah, my wife told me yesterday, Too sad. I have really fond memories of watching Robert ride the wheels of his beautiful little RS125 at Scarborough evry year when I lived up north. Martin Finnegan died on the Irish roads the other week too. Another really sad loss.

I really hope it doesn't renew the calls for banning the real road racing though. These are people who know and accept the risks - as we all do when we get on our bikes every day. And as I will be doing shortly. I'll do my best to loft a little one wheel'd salute for each of them.

RIP
