It’s with tremendous sadness that we have to announce that our Deputy Editor, Jenn Hill died yesterday after her long battle with lung cancer, at St Gemma’s Hospice, Leeds. She was 37.

Although expected after her decision to step down as Deputy Editor just over a month ago the news is still shocking to all of us at Singletrack and Grit.cx. All our thoughts are now with her husband Tom and all her family and friends.

What Mark doesn’t know about social media isn’t worth knowing and his ability to balance “The Stack” is bested only by his agility on a snowboard. Graphs are what gets his engine revving, at least they would if his car wasn’t electric, and data is what you’ll find him poring over in the office. Mark enjoys good whisky, sci-fi and the latest Apple gadget, he is also the best boss in the world (Yes, he is paying me to write this).

  1. Such a shock even though the outcome was inevitable, condolences to husband Tom, both genetic families and work family at Singletrack.

  2. RIP Jenn, I never met Jenn I only wished I had, an inspiration to me as a cyclist and human being from everything I’ve read. Somehow bikes right now don’t seem important

  3. Jenn was an absolutely inspiring woman who would light up a room with her presence. We were privileged to have ridden with her and she will be terribly missed.

  4. Such sad news. Just heart-rending.

    Thoughts go out to her nearest and dearest, and to all her colleagues. There must be a huge numbness and a Jenn-shaped gap in your world.

  5. The last thing she said to me was “see you soon” knowing full well she wouldn’t.
    That was Jenn through and through, endlessly positive, supportive and giving.
