Guest Sameer Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 I honestly don't know what to say. Just logged onto T-F as usual and saw it all. I was only speaking to him the other night, he was as up-beat, lively and cheery as always. Met him on quite a few rides... great rider, great bloke, great loss. RIP mate.

Guest Daniel Fisher Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Location: Groby Leicester, EnglandRIP DJ Never knew you, never saw you or heard of you until now, yet i feel as a fellow rider a strong connection and i hope you really do rest in peace. The funeral with riders sounds like a good idea and i'm sure any rider would want the same for themselves. RIP DJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Philip Williams Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Location: LiverpoolGutted to say the least, only met the guy once and he had a really good personality, and was awsome at trials. Tragic loss :-( :-( going to miss his antics on the forum, he was so talked about, seemed like everyone knew him. Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest David Gill Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 I never met DJ, but pretty much all of his posts made me laugh. I was really sadened when I read the news. I can tell you'd want everyone to be positive, so why don't we try and do that? You seemed like a really cool guy. You are a legend Deej.

Guest Ben Jordan Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Location: Camberley, Surrey.I met DJ a few times on rides and he was always friendly to me, damn good rider, personality. It would be really bad if it was ANY trials riders, but for it to be the legend that is Deej... it makes it doubly worse! Rest in peace mate.

Guest Will D Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Location: SurreyRide in Peace Deej. I never knew you, but judging from the 250 comments here, you were a strong and loving part of these peoples' riding lives. You will be missed by all, and this has come as a complete shock to all that knew you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Drew Berridge Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Location: OxfordDJ was one of those guys that had a positive effect on everyone he met. He never had a bad word to say about anyone, and offered me nothing but encouragement every time we rode together. He was a great rider, a great friend and I'm sure his memory will live on in trials riding forever. A true tragedy - our thoughts go out to his family and closest friends. We're gonna miss you buddy.

Guest Nick Vaughan Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 The sheer scale of DJ's popularity was way beyond what many of us could ever dream of, its often said, but rarely true of people, that nobody could say a bad word about him, but in this case, it really holds true. he was one of the most genuine, down to earth people around, a good friend, and never too busy to help out, he jsut had such a spark for life, even when things were down he still held his head up, i wish i could lead my life like DJ did, he really was an inspiration ive spent hours this morning, sat here, looking thru my recieved files at pics, and vids of DJ, wondering how this could happen, why him? why now? after the initial shock, things seem a little more clear, but where do his family and friends go from here? what will Em do? its the little things that stay to haunt you, what will become of his bike? his bedroom? no doubt at some point this week his name will be called in a school register.all these constant reminders he will never be forgotten, and i never want to forget him. a truely great person, missed by all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sam Hewitt Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Location: farnhami would like to pay my respects at the funeral, but its totally understandable if the family rather it be closest friends only. the bike idea isnt a bad one, if its agreed to by family then id do that too. DJ made such a big impact on all of us beforehand, and now even more so coz hes not here. he'll never ever be forgotten wen i ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
