Member passes away

"Benny hedges", a member on this forum (though an infrequent poster), passed away on the weekend, the result of a traffic accident. He was a very active member of the UK-based vtr1000.org site.

I didn't knw the man personally either (though we did exchange messages on a few occasions), but a quick read of comments posted by those who did know him show him to be a wonderful and helpful human being...... sad, sad, sad........

Sad news for sure. Hate when the world becomes one good person less. Godspeed to him. Prayers to his family.

Sounds trite but if he was on his bike he was at least doing what he loved and went with his boots on (as my Dad always says).

I read the Brit VTR1000 thread link. It sounds like he was a great guy.

Condolences to his family and friends.
