Im not sure how many of you know Nick but I have been asked to release some sad news. Nick has been battling terminal cancer for a while now and he has unfortunately taken a turn for the worst. I guess people have been watching his project and this is why he hasnt posted anything for while now. The Project will be finished buy his brother-in-law who kindly gave me permission to put this post on to let all Nick's friends on here know what has happened. I will let you all know of any further news when I get some.
Please can the religious amongst us all send a prayer for Nick and those not religious please have a thought for him and his family.

I have met Nick on a few LC meets and he is a really nice guy and a very talented bike builder. So sad to hear this news, don't know what else to say other than I really wish him and his family well and I hope he can pull through. Cancer really is the pits  Thanks Kenny for putting up what must have been a very difficult post. |

So sorry to hear this sad news. I've followed Niks builds and he certainly is a talented bike builder, and more importantly a nice fella. Cancer is an indiscriminate disease and effects the best of us I pray Nik improves and we all get to see more of his builds in the future. Dusty |

I had my RDLC calendar out last night putting dates in for the rugby next month. Nick's KH is the October pic .. great build by a talented guy, as with his GT500 project.
As with the other comments my thoughts are with him and his family.
