Here are the three (click images to go to the ebay auctions):
From the description:
1 of 3 signed photographs being auctioned. The proceeds from this auction will benefit Mark's widow Jayne and their four children.
When someone’s chosen livelihood is as fraught with risk as is the life of a motorcycle racer, their epilogue often includes the phrase, “he died doing what he loved.” We think this misses the point when we look at Mark Buckley’s life. Instead, we think Mark Buckley lived his life doing what he loved. During his too few 35 years, he was known by his fellow racers and the members of his teams as “a seemingly incongruous character who was both a loveable jokester and a fierce competitor.” Besides being an accomplished professional racer of petrol bikes, he will also be remembered as one of the first racers to take a podium in the nascent days of electric motorcycle racing. Mark took third place on Brammo’s TTR racebike in the first TTXGP race on the Isle of Man in 2009.
Mark’s life wasn’t defined merely by his skills as a racer, however. To his wife, Jayne, and their four children, Aaron, Murrin, Abbie, and Mollie, he will be remembered as a loving husband and father. It is for them that Brammo has decided to auction these autographed photographs of Mark racing in that first ever contest on the Island. Proceeds will be for the benefit of his family.
That Mark’s life ended during the NW 200 SuperStock race on a sparkling spring day in Portstewart, Northern Ireland, is a sad final chapter in this story. We, however, will remember him as he lived: a man who enjoyed helping others achieve their goals, who loved his family, who always had a smile on face and who had the drive, the courage and the skill to ride very, very quickly.
Bidding starts at $10, but I've already started bidding on #2!
