Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 What a waste, the driver of the van is facing prosecution. A Scottish cycling champion has died after a collision with a van while training on the A82 in Fort William. Jason MacIntyre, 34, who broke cycling legend Graham Obree's 10-mile time trial Scottish record last year, died in hospital from his injuries. He was hoping to make the British Olympic team and his death came a day after he had been given funding to train for the 2010 Commonwealth Games. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/highla...nds/7189168.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianculbertson 0 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 In a statement, Mr MacIntyre's family said he was a "wonderful son, husband, brother and father." He was survived by his wife and 8 year old twin daughters. That's the part that always bothers me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
