I was so sad to hear of Bruno's death. A great rider, a huge fan of real road racing, and a lovely man. My thoughts are with his family.

Great Sorrow
I, like most TT fans, am shocked to read of the death of Bruno.

Macau is not the safest cicuit, but generally has a good record considering the narrowness of the road and all the barriers.

It has really been an awful year, and we sit here hoping that 2006 will be safer and happier.

Such a nice fellow, The TT will miss him !!

Bruno Bonhuil
Another courageous rider rides out of our lives. I had ridden with Bruno at the TT a couple of times, but I had met him frequently when he stayed with my pal Richard Rose in Laxey. What a lovely man. He really enjoyed coming to the Island, rode it very sensibly(with one exception), and had a very professional approach to his motorcycle racing.
There will be many who will miss this likeable Frenchman from Reims,and my deepest sympathy goes to his wife and family.
