48 years old and presumably always looked after himself - just goes to show keeping fit only gets you so far. No-one's safe!

One of the great sportsmen of recent times.
One of my mates met him when he was doing warm weather training in Perth riding down from the hills to the beach with a group & said he was lovely guy happy to give autographs & pose for photos 

Tell me again about this God who is cutting his life short & letting Spurs fans live.

There are alot of positive stories of prostate cancer being diagnosed as terminal with people still around 10, 15 even 20 years later. Apparently have a positive mental attitude helps. That's one thing Chris Hoy has got. 

Hope he is one of the ones that beat it. He deserves to enjoy the rest of his life. 
Couldn't have put it better myself.
