Craig Jones

Any one who follows bike racing will know of Craig Jones one of our top road racers , in the World Supersport class , he was involved in a freak accident while contesting for the lead at Brands Hatch yesterday.

Sadly he succumbed to his injuries in the early hours of today, really unlucky and a great shame , my thoughts are with his family and friends.

A great sport but people sometimes make the ultimate sacrifice.

Craig Jones 1985 - 2008

Just watched the crash... talk about a complete freak accident. I've seen much worse where they've just dusted themselves off and walked away.

RIP!

I watched that on the telly, It didn't really look that bad a crash, just goes to show how fragile life is.

Really sad loss to his family, friends and the sport.
