Message: Having only been into road racing for about a year i dont really know much about Richard. But after watching some IoM's and NW's he surely became one of my favourites. My heart goes out to all the people who knew the great man, especially his family. And as someone said on another website, "road racing in heaven just got a whole lot tougher!" RIP RICHARD!

Message: i can still remember the first time i got your autograph, it was the mid antrim road race and i had'nt been a race supporter for that long, it was my boyfriend that got me into it, it was just after your race and i plucked up the nerve to ask you. im a shy person and when i asked you i was greated with a hugh smile, you put my nerves at ease, i was like a kid again when i got it really excited, you were the first ever person to sign anything for me and i will never forget that, i am a hugh fan of you and was completely gutted when i found out about you. i send out my deepest simpathy to your wife and son, in my heart you will live on, till we meet again.. biggest fan cha x

Message: I just wanted to express my sincerest condolences. I never had the honour to meet Richard but from his televison appearances it was clear that he was a remarkable and much loved individual with a fantastic personality. The only positive thing i can think to say is that he died doing what he loved.
Kind regards,

Martijn Vermolen

Richard, you were a joy to watch on a racing bike, so smooth so clever so fast and so professional, a TT win was waiting for u next year. Your no 8 will never grace the roads again but the memories will live in our minds forever.I'v watched u racing since the start of ur career and always liked ur style and got to know you some years ago after an 'all night knees up' at the TT. I will never forget what an honest and good-craic friend u were to us that night. (I will never forget chasing seagulls down the prom at 4am either), and subsequently meeting you at every race meeting,you never failed to come and talk to us greeted by that warm friendly smile even if ur day went bad. Good bye big fellow and let that big golden warm heart of yours glow forever...for 8 is great.

Message: I was watching the UGP from just before the first drop at the top of the Deers Leap in 2004. It was the first Superbike race (the second one was cancelled when time ran out) and Richard was running in 4th or 5th place, not far away from the leaders. On the last lap, he had a few second gap infront and several seconds behind, so he had a bit of time to play, what I saw I will always remember as a truly awsesome biking moment. Richard came around the right hander at the top of the Deers Leap flat out and lifted the front wheel up over the Leap until the bike was vertical, he stood up on the pegs and kept the bike at an impossible angle down the hill at an incredible speed. Such a stylish rider, such a nice guy. A Road Racing Legend! RIP
