Jeff Archer

How sad.

Another painful reminder that despite the shootings and other atrocities that receive mass media coverage, cars are bigger killers both here and over the pond.
 
Re:

How sad, how terrible – to be randomly taken out of this world by a drunken idiot, whilst just crossing the street. What a loss to our heritage and his family.
 
Hard to believe. I'm staring at a text from just last week from Jeff answering yet ANOTHER question about a frame I recently bought from him. His knowledge, passion and pleasant nature will be sorely missed. God speed Jeff and prayers are out for you and your loved ones.

Still true, but in The States it's gone from cars being involved in 50% more deaths than guns at the turn of the millennium to only a few percent more currently.

Not that that disputes the value of your point in terms of coverage they get or the tragedy of lives lost to either.
 
Sad to hear of Jeff's passing. Thoughts with his family at this time.
 
Re:

Terrible loss to the world of cycling... His legacy will live on for me each time I use the MOMBAT timeline etc.. My thoughts are with all Jeffs family and friends.

RIP

Re:

What a news… :|
I had a lot of contact and mails with Jeff for writing articles or for finding rare and nice parts : the BOI forks of my Fat Chance for exemple… A few month ago, he gave me the contact of John Olsen, one of the designer of the really first 1984 'dale and he helped me too for making the exhibition of history of rear suspension. I'm going to built that exhibition in the Pyrénées tomorrow for all the summer time. I will add some words for Jeff.

Hello mate and thanks for all you did for the history of mtb
