The Kentucky Kid has passed away from his injuries from last week’s cycling crash while riding, training. He was hit by a car.

Terrible news.
I used to love road biking, but after sustaining a big injury myself, seeing my Dad get injured and almost die in the hospital, then seeing his best friend paralyzed after a crash on his bike, I’ve just about hung up my cleats.
Godspeed Mr. Hayden.

Sad to see him gone. So loved, and still had so much more racing to do.
BTW he was
riding solo according to his dad
, not in a group. SuperBikePlanet is also reporting journalists have seen video of Nicky not stopping at a stop sign before the accident.

I am so gutted over this. I’m fighting to hold back my tears.
I’ve been glued to every article I could read about Hayden’s condition and updates since the accident happened, and when I read the news today, I’ve just been lost, in shock. This is so terrible.
RIP Nicky. You were taken from us too soon.
