Benny Hedges has died on his bike. He will be missed.

Post by Image »

So sad to hear of my mate Martin Vee Vtr (known on here as Benny Hedges) dying on his bike yesterday. Whenever I had a prob with my VTR he was always there for me. He is the friend who told me about this forum and rated everyone on it as sound guys. He lived local to me and loved his storm.
His front wheel slipped from under him on a tight corner. His pillion survived but he didn't. Ironically, it was only a few days ago I started a topic on here about the traction issues on hot days.
Martin was a biker through and through. Sadly missed.

He'd gladly ride or drive 50 miles to help out a fellow storm rider. Devastated.
