Default RIP Gus Scott

Did anyone else catch the TT highlights on Sunday morning? Great stuff (made the motoGP that followed look like childsplay!).

However, I was saddened to hear about the death of TWO writer Gus Scott. I have enjoyed reading his stuff for many years and even have a few Performance Bike DVDs from 2002/2003 with him in it, he seemed like a very funny and likeable chap and a great rider to boot!!

Anyway, RIP Gus and to the other's who lost their lives at the TT.

I even logged onto the T.W.O. website to see if it was mentioned. Sad indeed.

It was a great tragety may they both rest in peace.
But both marshals and riders know the risks that go with this kind of sport.

Indeed. Very sad...

His work was always witty and well informed. He shall be missed. Sad to note that he leaves behind a 10 year old daughter.

I obviously feel very sorry for the Marshal killed in the incident - it's something that worries me when going trackside and hearing this makes it even worse.

That's three deaths this year that I know of (one sidecar rider too).

Very sad indeed.

RIP
