It might not mean much to you yanks, but those of us who watched Brit superbikes, it\'s come as quite a shock.

Shit man. All the old school are dying this year. Hislop was at his peak when I first started watching.

He was a great rider and a proper gent, he\'ll be missed around the paddock.

RIP Hizzy.

He won the Isle of Man.....11 times??????

The man has mad skills! I recall watching a video of a race in the Isle of Man but from the bike\'s point of view. And Steve was most likely the rider since he was passing all the bikes!
