Most MTB related sites have skipped over this sad news but for someone who was so successful in the early days it’s a shame to let it go unreported

Yes sad news, 59 is no age really .
Such a force on the DH circuit in the 90's

Oh dear. That’s so young.

 

[Chopper the ex Copper]

Indeed. It's sad whenever a good person passes away, but 59 is no age at all.

59 is much too young. Almost nothing about her online - I hope the media picks up on this and writes about her career.

Always sad to hear.

She was a great rider.

Sad news. Always the quiet achiever in MTB, racing DH for some of the biggest teams with solid results.

Scary that someone clearly so seemingly healthy, loving to her family, others and full of life can pass so young. RIP

I remember her, exactly my age as well. RIP.
