Zombie died today in a biking accident.
UKBF
I know he fell out with some RS people (including me) but I've known him for years now and will miss him more than I can say.

Didnt know the bloke personally, but my thoughts and condolences are with his family and friends. Its always tough losing someone suddenly.
Especially a fellow rider.
Two is the magic number... ;)

He was an opinionated but principled guy that had been around since Bikenet days.
Whatever anyone thought of him he was a biker through and through.
Condolences to his family.

I vaguely remember him, but never knew him. Doesn't matter really always sad to hear of fellow biker dying.

RIP Zombie. Another one of those names you used to see scattered about the internet bike forums that sadly will be no longer.
Open roads, Zombie.

Kwackerz - thanks for digging out that old post of Zombie's that you put on UKBF - I've saved it as a lasting memoir. Had some wonderful PMs from Z specially when I had all the problems with my leg, but of course I never saved any of them cos - well, they were just PMs from a mate......

No probs BG.
Know what you mean about not saving stuff. Im always battling over what to save when my inbox fills to 100%
Maybe that's what ISP webspace is for.. that space the ISPs give customers that nobody ever puts to good use..!
