A 20-year-old motorcylist who was killed in a crash last week was an apprentice at a Royston firm.

Jack Alexander was killed when his Yamaha YZFR6 motorbike collided with a silver Volkswagen Transporter van on the B656 Royston Road in Baldock at 7.45am on July 17.

Jack – who went to Samuel Whitbread Academy in Clifton and lived in Stotfold – had just finished working as an apprentice at Thermal Engineering in Royston.

A Facebook page has been created where people can leave their memories of Jack, share photos and support the petition to build a bench in his memory.
