As I reported a few months ago, a cyclist from www.cyclingforum.com, was ill with some form of cancer.

Sadly, he has succumbed to this illness.

His online handle was "Masiman"

I did not know him, but I used to be an active participant at that forum and still lurk there. I know I have participated in threads in which he partook. He was posting there up until 2 weeks ago.

Sad news. I never like hearing about this, but since I know some of you posted there after I informed of a fellow pal's travails I thought I ought to post this too.

Cruddy way for me to get ready for a ride, but I am guessing that any cyclist would wish for nothing more than his fellow riders to keep riding.

Masi handled his illness with an open-ness and level of class I've never seen, at least online. He was also a great guy with a great sense of humor and humility. I'll miss him too.
