Died suddenly today at a show in his homebase Ukraine,apparently in the prizegiving after winning a class,from a severe brain bleed.
Very sad and shocking news.
A class rider,albeit a special character.
Only 47 but doing what he did best...winning.
 
Gracious, what a shock. Serves as a reminder to us all to make the best we can of every day - never know how much longer we have.
 
My God

That is a shock. And in the prize giving, so presumably in front of people. Really sad, thoughts go to his family and friends.

jean claude was a lovely bloke always took time to say hello and have a chat at the shows, i presume he is still married to samantha but my deepests thoughts and sympathies go out to his family and his two young kids...............rip jc :-( xxx
 
He was just married to a Ukrainien girl and had a baby of 6 months, just moved to the Ukraine to start a new life...devastating....
I didn't know him well,but he was just 4 years older than me and,well, I have a nice life and it just made me aware that, living for now is not just an option,but essential.
