I heard about "crazy Matt" being a Southampton legend about 9 years ago when I started riding.
I also was lucky enough to go on my first trip out of England with Matt and a bunch of other guys when I was 16 and it was a trip that I wont forget!
The dude was loose (in a good way) when it came to BMX but he without a doubt was passionate, polite, nice guy that loved his bike and his friends and always had a positive attitude even if things weren't looking that great. He sure knew how to smile.
I was shocked when I heard the horrible news... And gutted that I lost touch with him in the past couple of years.
Rest in peace mate
REMEMBERING MATTHEW ''MUTE'' PARKER from DAVID JONES on Vimeo.
Today we’ve learned the sad news that our close friend Mute has passed away after a Kayaking accident. Mute was an inspirational character in the UK BMX scene, putting on various street jams all over the country for many years. He did positive work in the community at large, inspiring young people to follow their dreams and supporting them along the way. Mute, you will be greatly missed by so many.
