'After a life spent fully and passionately emerged in the dangerous world of two-wheel motorsport, it was a cycling accident that ultimately claimed the life of the Kentucky Kid. Struck by a car while cycling in Italy, Nicky succumbed to the injuries he sustained on Monday.'

How gutting. Absolutely awful for it to happen in any way but particularly because it was such an innocent thing he was doing. frown

Very sad news, I used to love watching him race on the Repsol Honda.

Absolutely horrible news. As a cyclist myself, it hits home even more.

He was a couple of years younger than me. No age at all.

RIP.

Very nice guy, young himself and with a young daughter. Such a waste. RIP Number 69.

One of the best guys in motorsport. Inspiration not only as a MotoGP World Champion but also as a person and showed how to live your life.

Freddie Spencer: ‘I’m proud of him not for what he did on track, but for the way he carried himself.’

Says it all. RIP Kentucky Kid #NH69
