Peter Valente, AKA OrangeCrush, known to some on here, sadly passed away earlier this year. I heard about his passing the week after but seeing as he hadn't been on here for a while I thought nothing of mentioning it. Then today I was thinking about the trip to Minigaff that Ton organised & remembered that Peter was there, along with TJ, Scotroutes, Bustaspoke & Peter McMoonter to name a few, so some members had met him.
He'd been competing in a motorcycle trial in Fife when he became unwell & returned to his car, paramedics were called but unfortunately Peter passed away at the scene.
He'd ridden trials, road bikes & mountain bikes for years.
Sorry I'm late with the news. RIP Peter.
Sorry to hear.
Very sorry to hear that one of us has gone…. Thinking of his friends and his family.
Sorry to hear that, met him one time completely at random while out riding, can't even remember where that was but he seemed like a lovely guy, good on here too.
