I'd imagine a lot of you don't know who he is, but an easy/lazy comparison is, he's the Tony hawk of BMX. not quite the household name like Hawk, but anyone who'd watched X-games has seen him, I'm no BMX expert, but he was amazing, loved watching him ride, v influential.

Sad news

Exactly the comparison I just used to describe him at work. Sadly this was till met with a lot of blank stares. Luddites, the lot of 'em

A shame.

Philistines more than Luddites... Unless they are afraid of advances in bicycle technology
