I’ve just returned from being overseas and I am so saddened to find that Bronte has passed away. He and I shared a few laughs and an evening commentating in Gosford a year or two ago, one of hias first gigs on the mic – I think I have bits of it recorded somewhere.

Unbelieveable that Bronte could be gone. He was so exciting to watch on that bike, always one of my favourite riders, and a bloody good bloke who’d have done well with commentary as well.

To his family and friends, what a loss, you had a gem there – we all did.

Cheers mate,

Paul Richards

R.I.P bronte i cant believe that you are gone, you were my hero and always will b, you were the rider i most looked up to when the docters said i wasnt going to ride for 18 months i knew i had to prove to them i could and have so soon ill be winning races and first race i ever win going to dedicate it to you . i have two mags of you when you were on front cover one that is now in a frame and one that just sits in my draws that i get out and when i think times are tuff all i have to do is look at the challenges u faced, i bet your riding up there on the best tracks with jono and lusky and no longer suffering in pain. and looking down on your all your boys and family and making sure there safe, i know that when i get on a bike and all your friends do they are going to be thinking of #711. i wish i had to the guts to come and say hey when i saw you but one day we will met. R.I.P bronte you will never be forgotten my thoughts go out to brontes family and friends .

It still doesnt seem real.. you were a guy with a lot of guts and determination, you never once gave up for what you believed in.. You accomplished anything and everything you set ur mind too!! 21 years is so short for someone like you but you lived everyday to the max, never once looking back..
You gave 110% to everything you did, mx, ur family, ur friends and even getting back on those feet..
You never realised how much of an insperation you were to people of all ages.. Whether it was for racing or your courage, everyone looked up to u in a way.. Most of all Grads.
You were a hero, an inspiration to many, and it was always a massive piss up when u came bak home, and by morning something had always happened and someone always got in the shit for it, whether it was the fights or been kicked out of the pub and also been banned, haha..
Everytime we went round home to the K town house, a few of us wood go have a drink with sue, and for the next 2 – 3 hours we heard and caught up on everything you and Grads had been up to, from the flights, racing, commentating, everything, the funny times and the getting into trouble times..
Friday at the funeral, sitting there listening to all those stories the boys had told, i dont think there was not one person that didnt laugh, it was funny becoz it was always something u wood do, u never once changed, and if u did it was only for the better..
You loved a challenge, and always set goals to push urself that bit further.
You and my bro used to get up to so much shit, at school and at home, the back shed, on top of the shed, even now, i have never seen as many porn mags as i did on top of that shed roof..
Watching you race was just amazing, you are a fantastic rider and i know up there you will still be showing everyone how great u are..
You were a friend to so many, and most of them called u a brother, i still get asked, so how many brothers did Bronte actually have?
Your memories are always going to be held within our hearts, laughing at the things u used to do.. U always put a smile on everyones face, and always had the time to talk to everyone…

Your free to ride now bront..

Sue, Gunna and Grads our thoughts are with u, and we will always be here for u… xx

His close mates all over, an awesome friend who cld neva be replaced!

#711 the dream rides on……..
RIP BRONT

Love the Salts xx

Those of us here in Kaniva that have known Bronte his whole life are so shocked and saddened he’s gone. Such a larikin and always pushing the boundaries. He lived such a full life for his 21 years. We miss him and we give all our love and support to Gunna Sue and Grady. Also to Brontes’ mates my heart goes out to you.
