CN III VOICES L E T T E R S T O T H E E D I T O R "If anyone from Moto3 can jump straight to MotoGP and show results, then it's Jack Miller." Don Tilley I met Don Tilley back mid-'80s or so. My son and I were riding down I-77 one Sunday morning to a swap meet in Charlotte. I had a flat tire so I called Don and he came out with a new tube, helped me put it on and we were back on the road. He would not take any pay except for the cost of the tube. I never forgot that and I'm praying for the family. Ernie Peeler Via Facebook Don Tilley II Proud to say I rode with Don Tilley many times. He will be missed. Godspeed, my friend. Prayers for his family... Mark Virden Via Facebook Don Tilley III I do not know how to say Tilley without adding Harley-Davidson to it. So sad to hear this news. Shelle Young Via Facebook Don Tilley IV If you're called home on the Blueridge Parkway, that isn't a bad way to go. RIP, Don Tilley. Mark Swinford Via Facebook KTM Bicycles Explained Although KTM Fahrrad GmbH (bicycles) and KTM Sportmo- torcycle GmbH are both based in Mattighofen, Austria, they are two independent companies. KTM bicycles have been in the European market for many years and are now expanding into the U.S. market. Gerrit Gaastra Germany Likes Us I must congratulate you on Cycle News' exemplary format and design. I have seen many print publications struggle to adapt their rags to a web- based version - mostly without success, in my honest opin- ion. Crappy layouts, annoying animated ads, and simple bad taste are unfortunately the norm... You folks got it right. I was initially skeptical of Uberflip (which I thought was merely gimmicky, at first), but it all makes sense now. You have managed to produce a webzine that is - arguably - superior to what can be achieved in print, and I salute you! Vic Plichota Via the Internet Cole And Honda I wish Cole Seely the best of luck the next few years with his ride with Honda. That's a first- rate factory ride! Ray Groom Via Facebook Miller And MotoGP The Open class Hondas next year in MotoGP will be a better girl than this year's bikes - certainly not winnable against the top riders on works bikes, but a better platform to start on than what Scott Redding has this year. Jack Miller is a pretty tall fella and it's not like he has never ridden big bikes before. If anyone from Moto3 can jump straight to MotoGP and show results, then it's Jack Miller.
