    Awful awful thing to happen. We don't realize how dangerous this kind of sport can be.. We just see them zooming along and think "wow, what a great ride". Now I will be more aware when I see events of this kind.

    Prayers for his family.

    I heard that he was airlifted to hospital - on the next newscast, he had died. Too, too tragic.

    He was going at about 130kph/81MPH when his machine left the track and crashed into some kind of structure.

    At the peak of his life, all he had trained for, a dream come true...

    Prayers for his family and friends.
