It is now 50 years since I first became involved with motor cycle sport and during that time I have had to accept tradegy in the sport as well as immense pleasure. I have lost many friends and heroes including Bob McIntyre, Jock Taylor, Stan Auld,Ian Moir,Colin Keith, Robert Mitchell, Jack Gow, Roy Anderson, George Paterson and everyone's death is hard to accept.
With young Ross Campbell it is even harder to accept because of his age and because of the entire Campbell family and what they have all given our sport, Jackie, Alex, Crichton and Ian and I wonder just why this must happen to such a sincere, dedicated and honest family.
I can say for certain there is not a race fan or motor cycle competitor in Scotland and beyond who are not thinking of the family at this sad time and send deepest sympathy.
