I got a shocking phone call last night and thought you guys should know as he was a forum member and also a Mod on this forum at one time.
Slothminx (Will) was involved in a car cash last wednesday and i'm very sad to say he died in the crash.. http://www.dorsetecho.co.uk/news/4431333.Horrific_head_on_crash_claims_two_lives_on _A31/ ....i knew lots of guys from this forum talked to him and he even made it over to Trikefest in 07 with Kintore and buddy's. So sad as he was only 19 years old and a great guy .......my heart goes out to his family at this time.
RIP Will you will be missed buddy
here a pics taken my his dad back in 06 of Stacey,Myself and Will on his Z

Wow That truly is sad news. I didn't know him other than reading his posts but a loss of anyone that age is a great loss and any 3wheeled fan is also a great loss.:(

Loved ya like a brother good buddy,
see you sometime good friend, you will be sorly missed!
I was a forum friend of Will's. It is very hard to believe he had to part so early on in life.
A great stand up guy has been lost, as well as a friend.
Sad news indeed.

RIP Slothminx. One of my good friends died in a car crash 6/13/07, so this time of year brings back bad memories for me.

RIP England - you will be missed. I had the pleasure to meet and hang out with Will at TF07 - and talked to him from time to time on the forums - and actually even used Google Chat with him one time a few years back.
You will be missed Will - see you someday!

So sad to hear.... Sounds like it was a horrible accident.
I hate to hear of anyone passing, let alone a fellow board member and trike lover.
RIP and best wishes to your family.

What can I say but heartfelt condolences to everyone involved. I didn't know Will but it still makes you stop and think.
I know that road well (was there on Tuesday), never have liked it and even less now.
God Bless.

Met Will at TF 07. He was helping us pull people out of the huge mud/water crossing towards the end of the poker run. Man were we covered in mud. I'm sure Kintore will remember that. He seemed like a great kid, and i'm sorry to hear of this tragic news.......

Was talking to him on the phone a couple weeks ago about flying in for an ATV trip but the plans fell though. Can't help but think things would have been different had he come. For those that knew him we were all better for knowing who he was. For those lucky enough to be his friend we were simply blessed. William Johnston, you will be missed.

I am very sorry to hear that. I had some internet contact with him a while back and he seemed like such a good young guy. The news is just making me sick. RIP

Did Will ever run "his number" on anything? It would be cool to have some stickers made with his name and number to put on our trikes in his memory.
