Mark Fincham

09 July 1980 - 06 August 2017

MARK FINCHAM, from King’s Lynn, served in the Royal Marines from 2003 to 2011 before leaving as a Lance Corporal. After a career in the Marines, Mark, who had his leg amputated following a traffic accident in 2007 turned to motorbike racing.  He competed for True Heroes Racing, a team made up of injured UK service personnel and veterans.  Sadly, Mark lost his life when he was involved in a crash whilst competing in a Pirelli National Superstock 1000 Championship race at Thruxton in Hampshire on Sunday 06 August 2017.  

Hundreds of motorcyclists travelled from across the country to join Mark’s funeral procession following an appeal from Mark’s family for riders to accompany him on his final journey.
