Chrissy Rouse's former school has remembered the young motorcycle racer as a man 'local hero and a true gentleman.'
The 26-year-old tragically died following a crash on the opening lap of the Bennetts British Superbike Championship race at Donington Park on Sunday, October 2. He suffered a significant head injury and died in hospital on Thursday, October 6, surrounded by his family.
Alongside his motorcycle racing, Chrissy had worked as a maths teacher at Grace College in Gateshead but left the job last year to pursue his Superbikes dream.
