Don't think this has been mentioned here yet.
According to the report he suffered a heart attack at Forestburn Gate which is the location of quite a steep climb.
Thoughts with his family and friends.

Died doing what he liked, and a quick one too. When I've gotta go I hope its like that. Rest in Peace and lets hope there's no rain in Heaven. (and Gods a Cyclist)

I was on the Bike for Bobby ride too. Albeit on a different route. Very sad to hear about this. RIP.

RIP. Dying doing something that you love has got to be one of the better ways to go. Condolences to his family.
