Former AMA professional racer and British and world championship competitor, Scott Sheak, has sadly passed away at the age of 47 after suffering multiple spinal and internal injuries following a crash while practicing two weeks ago.
The New York native rode for factory Honda, Pro Circuit Kawasaki and Rob Hooper’s Suzuki GB team during a successful pro career and was trying to qualify for Loretta Lynn’s this year.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this sad time.
The Road 2 Recovery Foundation has been working closely with the Sheak family to help them navigate this unforeseen tragedy and have set up a fund to help them offset the immense costs of his hospitalization and care; they will continue accepting donations in his memory, with all funds going to support his family.
