If you are saying what I think you are, that hasn’t been officially said and the family might not be ready yet for that to be in the public domain. You might want to re consider Same goes for the comment on Benji Compton Lioness - with respect, as Tsunami has deleted the “offending” post maybe you could edit it out of yours - otherwise there is little point in the original disappearing! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CUFC_Brummie Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Awful news. You were a hell of an entertainer Danny, even more so in a sporting world now lacking in true personalities. Rest in peace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do enjoy reading the great amount of your posts on this site, but at times a little bit of humality goes a long way. Just because you may think you may know more than the rest of us , there are times where silence is the better recourse. I believe on this occasion it maybe of been the better action RIP Danny Tsunami - Iv'e seen you have deleted your post Big love Thoughts to the Ayres family at this most distressing of times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps if Tsunami apologised for a ''clumsy'' post it would solve any unintended offence caused. I am not familiar with the person in case anyone thinks this is personal.

R87 Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 What horrible news to find. RIP Danny. A great character and entertaining rider taken far too soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobMcCaffery Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Bad enough to lose one of our family at such a young age, but also someone whose racing and relationship with fans was so loved. We need our entertainers. Whatever the reasons, rest well, Danny. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldHawk Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Danny was a complete enigma. Brilliant one minute, miles in the lead and then in the fence. But Speedway is sadly short of riders that generate this kind of excitement, a character and an entertainer and most of all an all round thrill merchant. He would have been revered as a rider in the 70's and 80's when showman ruled. Sadly he missed that era but equally made the relatively dull speedway of today a joy to watch in races he was in. Speedway has lost a gem. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhamboy66 Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 From the first time I saw Danny at Rye House in a second half it was obvious with experience he would develop into a decent rider. What wasnt obvious was how popular he would become. I followed most of his career at Kent and more latterly at Mildenhall. Not only had he become a very accomplished rider but a true showman and crowd favourite. It's very sad what has happened and there is nothing else to say but my thoughts are with Danny's Family and Friends 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben91 Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Heartbreaking. RIP Danny, a true entertainer on tracks, a character the sport needs these days. My thoughts go to his family and friends, I hope Danny has found peace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25yearfan Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Devastating news. I'm glad I saw him in action many times, a great naturally talented rider, full of energy and very entertaining. R.I.P. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 I only saw Danny Ayres ride once, at last years British Final, and for me, his race with Bomber was the highlight of the evening. Even though he must've been gutted to lose the race he still gave a great interview after, full of passion and great humour, and I remember thinking what a breath of fresh air this guy is, in a sport sadly lacking real entertainers these days. Such a shame to go so young RIP 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acef Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Was genuinely in disbelief when the news broke. I'm still shocked if I'm honest. He seemed like such a free spirited bloke, always smiling and always having a laugh. RIP man. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
