Family pay tribute to much loved Cambridgeshire motorcyclist killed in Valentine's Day collision

The incident happened at just before 7.30pm on Wisbech Road and involved a car and a motorbike.

The rider of the motorbike, Eric Gowler, 34, of St Peters Road, March, suffered fatal injuries and died at the scene. The driver of the car was uninjured.

In tribute, Eric’s family said: “Eric was a much-loved son, father, brother and uncle. He was a friend to many and lived life to the full.

“He would do anything to help anyone and he had a smile that would light up a room.

“Both he and his son had a passion for anything with an engine.

“He will be greatly missed by all who knew him and we would like to thank all those who helped at the scene, and for all the tributes left for Eric - he had more friends than we knew.”
