    I'm really sorry to hear this, my condolences to all who knew him here as a poster, as a fellow cyclist and his family. RIP Eamonn.

    Having read the tributes, Eamonn seems to have been a legend in his own time. RIP

    Sad, sad news. I never met Eamonn in person but knew him from here. I'm shocked to hear of his untimely passing.

    RIP Eamonn. 😥

    Nice tribute from a MTB legend, just goes to show how well regarded he was. His son John Lawlor is a very well known and respected MTB photographer/videographer.

    It's awful really. Hard to face it: we come, stay and go one day. So sad.

    Rest in peace, Eamonn.

    Awful news. RIP.

    I did not know Eamon in person apart from seeing the posts here, but our paths must have crossed many times given I live just around the corner from him. Such a tragedy.

    There was a nice piece about him in the Drogheda Independent this week, and seems to be carried on the main indo site paywall free

    Bought and sold a few items over the years with Eamonn, and gotto meet him a couple of times through this. A lovely chap with a fondness for a chinwag. Can't believe this news - he had years left on the road 😥
