Nice work dudes. Heart goes out to his family and all his mates on Vorb. This is really tragic - I remember seeing plenty of Keegan's posts on here, seemed like a top guy.

It should be a reminder to all of us to ride within our limits, and make sure that we take all necessary safety precautions

But he was wearing a helmet, and my guess that the jump he crashed on, wouldnt have been the first time he jumped it.

That news really sucks, i remember dhwninner in the forums bit of a shock when you realise that it can happen

Fair enough Macatak, but my point remains. We should all be careful out there. Such a tragedy...

"There is a chance I might be killed. But in exchange, I have such a powerfull sense f being alive. It's a bargin. I look at the risk, I take every step to minimize it, and in exchange for this little risk, I receive such a huge joy in living. Without risk the sun is just the sun, grass is just grass. With risk, common things have incredible freshness."

i just got this horrible news.
what Keegan? our first sponsored rider? this can't be true.
the more i read through this thread i had to cry.

hey keegan, tell me this is not true. we just emailed a couple of days ago about racing plans...

i feel shattered and don't know how the family will handle this

i can't say RIP cause i still can't believe this.
i need a couple of days to get over this and MIG cycles will aways be there for Keegan, for every race you gonna win..

Sadly, yes, the very same Keegan. A great guy who was not scared to push the boundaries.
