Smo™ Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 (edited) A trials rider who I knew as 'Matthews' died last night when he lost control of his car on Hope Road, Isle of Wight. He was a bit before my time and I had only ridden with him a handful of times but it's a shame to have lost his life at only 20 years old. Tank, Phil, Quigley, Adam and I are signing a card for his family tonight and send our condolences to them and his friends.RIP Matthews.
