In tribute to Jason MacIntyre

In tribute to Jason MacIntyre, multi British Time champion, who died tragically whilst training on his bike 15/01/08.

British 25 Mile Time Trial Champion, Jason MacIntyre (Edge RT) died this afternoon, after being involved in a collision at 13.34 GMT with a Highland Council truck which is believed to have turned left across his path as it entered the council yard on the northern outskirts of Jason's home town of Fort William.

The 34 year-old multiple Scottish champion was returning from a training run in the Spean Bridge area when the tragedy occured at a spot known locally as Carr's corner on the A82 road.

Despite being taken by ambulance to Belford Hospital in the town, he was subsequently pronounced dead from his injuries.

A late-bloomer, whilst giving indications of his quality as a rider over the last 15 years, it was only in the last two seasons that he realised the potential that many observers had long felt he harboured.

He is survived by his wife Caroline, and twin daughters Chloe and Morgan, to whom we extend our deepest sympathies.
