Angel nieto, 13 times Grand prix motorcylce roadracing world champion in the '70s and '80s, died due to an accident on an Atv, in Ibiza, at the age of 70.
He was a legend for me as a youth. My moped was Derbi, the same make he was riding then. He specialized in small displacement bikes, while Italian Giacomo Agostini rode bigger bikes. He was to motorcycle racing what Seve Ballesteros was to golf. RIP both of them.
