Met this young man at the Cape Epic at Lourensford in 2011 and again in 2012 after gruelling wins achieved with Christophe Sauser...down to earth, very pleasant and a brilliant person.
I was in total shock and disbelief last night...

RIP MTBkid....

Took part in a 400 people ride this morning from the middle of H' crest to his shop in Waterfall, very emotional, people laid flowers etc in honour of SA's best cyclist so tragically killed. RIP @africanmtbkid.

On my way, legs furiously pumping, I love ya,
I'm on my way back home
Still I dig deep for ya, like I've always done
Just on my way back home
Who would have known, now mom stands crying,
I'm still on my way back home

No need to take a breath or feel disappointment,
I'm on my way back home
Don't cry for me don't be sad
I'm on my way back home
Don't think it's too soon
don't ever hate the ignorant dealer of my fate
You know I am on my way back home....

You've seen me race, my demons I've killed
no need for me to take a breath
or explain my or your disappointment
no speed restrictions, not out of breath
You know....
I'm on my way back home....
