MAJs gay bikes [she’s in her fitness era]

Absolutely tragic and heartbreaking news. Rest in power, Maj.

I have followed Maj's adventures online for more than a decade now, what an awful loss this is. RIP Hayley.

What a champion she was. What a bunch of bullshit.

Oh fuck. So sorry to read this. RIP Maj

💖

RIP Maj, thanks for one of my favourite forum threads.

I always read this thread but never reply. I’d saved up a chunk and was looking forward to catching up with the capers. I literally don’t know what to say.

Such an amazing person and friend. I will miss her

That has got to have been the most fucked up page change ever. Brutally sad news.

Such terribly sad news. Thankful I got to meet Hayley IRL albeit only once. Her writing on this thread was really inspiring.

Shocking and so sad. Like many others, I read through this thread in chunks and always found it interesting and inspiring.

Very sad. RIP MAJ

This is so sad.

Such sad news, RIP Hayley

Sad times. Can't believe she was still riding her bike only a week ago. Absolute legend! RIP

She’ll be missed here.
Feeling lucky to have been the subject of her discerning and sharp observational wit once or twice!
Rest in peace Maj

Reading this thread shows how Maj approached life. With joy and positivity. Forum gold.

Many lessons to be learnt from her.

The very worst news, to loose someone so generous of kindness, wit and spirit.
I will always strive to emulate your way with words. It's been so sad and happy to hear about all the life you had planned left to live today, I'm glad you chose it that way.
We are all immeasurably worse with out you Hayley.

Going to miss you lots Hayley

God awful. My fav thread and voice here. What a loss.

I'm sure I'm not the only one to have occasionally pondered the digital trail we might leave behind to the world. Grateful for what Maj has given us.

I always had so much fun checking in on this thread, Maj's personality just shone through it. I'm so sad to hear that she's gone.

Eff me. Gut punch. So sad! Strength to her loved ones!

RIP Maj

reading your bike building journey is so inspiring, thoughtful, funny, wistful. It’s all beautifully written, thank you for making our forum so colourful. thoughts and prayers to everyone who loves you..

I am still lost for words. Thank you, Hayley, for touching our lives, for inspiring and witty essays about bike pop culture, and for teaching me a lot about social and structural injustice.
I am lucky I got the chance to meet you.

Absolutely tragic, things like this are always a reminder that we should all really take more time and be more kind.
