Crying or Very sad Was at the races last night when a mate got a call through saying there had been an accident at Mathers Cross and the family had been called for, for Robert, my heart sunk. I remember watching Robert winning races when I was about 3 going to the NW and the Ulster Grand Prix, he was a true gentleman and a fantastic racer.

R.I.P. #4, you will be missed.

Two brothers racing again up above...

Puts a saddener on the whole event now. Heard about it lat night and knew he was seriously ill, but then to hear he'd died was a bit of a shock.

Rip Robbie.

Yeah guy was a legend, was over this year for the practise and racing. Very sad but was great to watch his son win the 250 race. He died doing somthing he loved.

RIP Robert
