He came across as a fun and happy lad when he appeared in Natural Born Racers following the R6 cup and the occassional appearances he made in the commentary box, so sad to see he will no longer be on our screens. RIP Ollie

Its a nightmare, the young guy was so full of life.

I found out last night and it stopped what was a good night, I think people thought I was mad crying for someone i'd never met. I only ever read his articles in Motorcycle Racer, he seemed to live life to the max, and I will miss his antics and great riding.

My thouhts are for his family.

Rest in Peace you Ginger Gigolo...

Unhappy Re: Ollie Bridewell - RIP

Very very sad news indeed. I have just been on the BSB forum and there are 26000 plus views of the post about his accident. There is also an online book of condolences to sign.

Information about the funeral by Larry Scoop Carter

Ollie will be sadly missed by many
