Death - It's grabbing everyone!!! This sucks

[Pjalchemist]

Some of you might know about a mate whom i ride with who died recently.

Well it's bloody sad yet again as it seams the hand that feeds has taken yet one more from us.

I got this via e-mail yesterday morning.

Hello.

I received word today that Robert Janson was in an accident last Thursday (26th July) night and died at the hospital on Friday. He was on his way home from a one day music festival and walked over a brigde towards the centre of Gothenburg, when he somehow fell down. Robert was taken to hospital but died from his injuries on friday. Noone knows exactly how or why, but there must have been a lot of people around going from the concerts.

Seeing as he has been on the forum almost from the beginning and probably knows a lot of the mods and seniors I thought it would be best to write straight to you instead of posting this myself, as it deserves some special attention.

It's horrible all this, so many tragic deaths of young people, fellow riders This is very hard for me, riding won't ever be the same again as he was the only one around here and we met up regularly to ride. I started to worry when I couldn't get hold of him for a few days, but this came like a total shock. His funeral will be next Friday, not religious and no dresscode all in honor of Robert.

take care.

I really had no idea what to say or think after reading that. Had to call Danny the guy that owns the trials forum and see if he had it too and what he thought.

Robert Janson was 19 and from GÖTEBORG, Sveeden (as he called it)

My tatto on my neck is going to be huge!!

In less than 1 month 2 great trials riders have died, less than a year 3 have died! So far we've lost 4 top guys and all under 20! As dangrous as the sport is, not one death from it.

Life sucks big time at the moment!
