Fatality at Belton

[sw123]

Just heard from Belton that a rider has died in the advanced.
Apparently was very quick, through a rotational fall and he will have felt nothing.

RIP

Oh no.

Please, can you say if it's male or female, I know someone riding in the Advanced

RIP to whomever you are

If it is true I do hope it was very quick for the riders sake!

Whoever it is, how very sad for all involved both with him and the trials themselves. I don't know but will they continue with the class?

Ian Holden , our thoughts are with all family and friends

 

[wizoz]

I've just heard back from my friend, so I did breathe a sigh of relief, however that does not make it any better for those that have suffered the loss of their loved one.

 

[connie1288]

Apparently they have continued but everyone going slow and the fence removed.
