The older brother (age 25) of 2007 world supersport champion Kenan died on the 9th May after suffering a broken neck at the Kocaeli race track in the Turkish Motorcycle championship. He previously won the title in 2005.
Some of you may remember he wildcarded in 250 at Istanbul a couple of years back. Just though I'd let people know, haven't seen a topic about it whilst I was browsing. |

That sucks.
I really like Kenan. I don't know the circumstances and if one would had helped but how much longer is it going to be before road racers are wearing neck braces. There was a bit of hype about it a while back but it hasn't caught on. All the MXers are wearing one. Sadly it may take an incident like this to get people to do it -------------------- www.moderatorkiller.com

r.i.p. fellow rider
-------------------- Jerry Burgess: "Valentino moved through the field in Barcelona and everyone that he passed got a riding lesson."
"I think that if Casey had raced in the '80s and '90s with Kevin Schwantz, Wayne Rainey and Mick Doohan, he'd have seen that every weekend," the Australian told the official MotoGP website. "It was probably something that he wasn't particularly expecting; [he] probably expected to win the race easily like he'd dominated in the practices." "Pedrosa put up so little a fight it would have embarrassed a Frenchman" |
