Tributes paid to popular sportswoman Kate

 

The Island's sporting community has paid tribute to cyclist and athlete Kate Burge, who died in a road accident on Monday evening.

The 41 year old physiotherapist lost her life when she was involved in a collision with a Range Rover in Kirk Michael, while out cycling with friends.

Kate was well known in the cycling and fell running communities and a number of tributes from colleagues and well-wishers have been posted online. 

Manx Fell Runners chairman Richie Stevenson describes her as a popular member who will be greatly missed by those involved in the sport:
