I heard there'd been an accident and it was a bloke from that direction but I didn't put two and two together. We've probably been attending the same events, but I don't actually know him IRL.
Hope he gets better soon.

I've been in touch with his daughter. She says he's off life support and breathing on his own, but his injuries are severe and potentially life changing. He is likely to be in hospital up to next year. But he's a "stubborn oul brute" so you never know. Cards, flowers and whiskey to 4 Donegall Gardens, Whitehead, Carrickfergus BT38 9LP
Fuck.

I don't come in here very much these days but always look out for his posts as Skub is very much one of the good guys.

Oh no! GWS Skub!
And in the future, try to observe any hazards well in advance and apply the brakes in good time.

Shit, only just come on to General after having commented about his whereabouts in the bike section. That's terrible news, was only thinking of him yesterday as took a pic of a green triple and was gonna say he should make an offer as he was missing a green one. To anyone who does get in contact wish him well. One of the good guys for sure.
