Motocross enthusiast and prolific supporter of the sport, Stuart Miller has died. The Ci Sport head honcho spent the past eight months battling with cancer but passed away at a hospital in Guildford on July 3 aged 68.

Stuart formed CI Sport in the 1980s and over the years forged strong relationships with many of the sportā€™s leading brands including Alpinestars, Troy Lee Designs, Oakley, Renthal and DEP Pipes. As well as being a highly competitive businessman, Stuart was a keen competitor out on the circuit too and up until recently was a keen racer in the twinshock scene and the winner of Over 40 and Over 50 titles in the national twinshock series.

Considered by many to be a true gentleman, Stuart will be missed by many and quite a few of the people heā€™s touched over the years have already shown their respect on various social media channels.
