    I saw him on Cyclinghalloffame.com

    I don't really know the story about him, just vaguely remember that he
    died really young. I haven't been able to find much about it. What was
    the story? Was it an accident like Monsere?

    I remember reading about poor Monsere, who died while world champ.
    There was a piece about him in Cycle Sport. Just horrible. THere was
    even a photo taken of him at the accident. For him the rainbow jersey
    really was the rainbow jersey of doom. And then apparently his llittle
    boy also died in a horrible accident. What a tragic family!

    No, not at all. He died of a heart attack. He was only 32.

    I'm quite willing to repeat it: Demeyer didn't die of an accident, but of a
    heart attack.
