    Dave McCall, 1962 ~ 2008 <http://www.cycleseen.com/archives/257
    August 13th, 2008 by Ricky Blayney
    Ex-International and Ulster Cycling great Dave McCall was last night
    killed while competing in the Phoenix CC - Maryland Wheelers
    Inter-club league event at Nutts Corner when he was struck by a car.
    McCall, aged 46, was one of the most recognised names in cycling
    throughout Ireland. A top class international cyclist he won many
    honours on the road and track including competing in the 1990
    Commonwealth Games in New Zealand.
    As a mark of respect tonight' s Northern Ireland Hill Climb
    Championship and tomorrow' s Ulster 25 TT Championship have been
    postponed.
    Cycle-Seen would like offer its deepest condolences and sympathy to
    the family of Dave at this difficult time.
    A book of Condolence has been opened on the Phoenix Cycling Club
    website R.I.P.
