Tom White, one half of the legendary White Brothers accessory firm, has lost his battle against cancer age 68. The Californian, who set up business with his brother Dan in 1976, was a former dirt track pro who turned to motocross where he raced almost every weekend for the rest of his life.

Tom, who had one of the best off-road motorcycle museums in the world at his home near Anaheim, started the World Vet motocross championship at Glen Helen and was inducted into the AMA Hall of Fame for his work promoting motorcycling.

Out thoughts are with his family and many friends in the industry at this sad time.
