My wife used to take money off him when he used to take his Harley to "Surrey Harley Davidson" for servicing and other work. Nice guy, sad loss RIP
RIP he was a lovely man, met him a couple of times designed him a crazy stage bass rig back in about '91-'92 if he's took it with him thunder should be a little bit louder from now on
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/08/us/john-glenn-dies.html?_r=0 The first American to orbit the earth... The first pilot to make a supersonic crossing of America... Combat veteran of WW2 and Korea... The oldest person ever in space... A life story that reads like an adventure novel. One of the last of a very rare breed.
Had health issues and (like Pat Eddery) battled the demon booze - a prodigious talent in his prime RIP
Sounds like he's had a bit of bad shunt, hit by a car on his push bike... Hayden was treated by medical staff at the scene of the road accident before being taken to the local hospital in Rimini where he is being treated for "severe chest and head injuries" according to the report. http://www.eurosport.co.uk/superbik...after-being-hit-by-car_sto6169474/story.shtml spoken with sources close to the rider and understand that his injuries are ‘critical’... http://www.motofire.com/2017/05/new...n-in-hospital-after-serious-bicycle-accident/
Just checked the links, not good at all, to say the least. A great talent and I was lucky enough to meet him once, lets hope he makes a full a recovery.
Ah Jeeez... yes that sounds really bad. I too heard about this but didn't realise it was so serious, poor bloke his luck goes from bad to worse...
