Nicky Hayden Died today (22-05-17) one of the most engaging smiles of anyone in Motorcycling,
A brilliant offroader and flat tracker and one of the very few men to steal a Motorcycle Championship from Valentino Rossi,
And they remained good friends afterwards.
RIP Nicky thanks for everything.

A sad loss to the sport. It is surprising how many motorcycle champs have died in completely unrelated incidents, which makes their end all the more tragic.

The man was humble, he was good, he was looking forward to a wonderful future outside the sport, and we was definitely taken too soon.
I looked up to Eddie Lawson, Freddie Spencer, Aaron Slight,Fred Merkel, and Mick Doohan when I was racing.........guys like Niki would have been the same.
He achieved what most motorcycle enthusiasts could only dream of.

"Pole position on the right set up - in- peace Mr Hayden."
