Today I heard that a biker I've know for years, mostly on the internet but also sharing a lot of giggles and fun at some rallies, met his death in a biking accident in Essex today.  I can't believe he's gone, he's been through so much including losing a leg years ago and a marriage breakup and more but he always fought back and was a qualified instructor.

If anyone knows Wayne Carpenter aka Zombie from Colchester, the details are on UKBF

I knoe he wouldn't want me to be sat here in  tears, he'd say to go out and kick the kerb for him, and then get on with life.  So I will.

Ride free forever Zombie!
