Sean Hurley
TRIBUTES have been paid to Sean Hurley from Ballinhassig who tragically died in a road accident last Wednesday.
Twenty five-year-old Mr Hurley’s jeep struck a tree in very poor driving conditions at Bawnleigh on the Halfway to Kinsale road.
He was very well known in the motorcycling community and was also the brother of RTÉ sports presenter Jacqui Hurley.
He was a former pupil of St Brogan’s College in Bandon and was very popular in the motorcycling community across the country.
Comedian and fellow motorcycling enthusiast PJ Gallagher described him as “one of the nicest men in motor bikes”.
