A21 fatal crash: Biker 'had beaten cancer'

Mr Cunningham's "adventurous shenanigans" started young and never stopped, his family said

The family of a biker killed in a collision with a van in Kent have paid tribute to their "one in a million" husband, father and grandfather.

Motorcyclist Michael Cunningham, 54, of Oxted, Surrey, was killed on the A21 near Tonbridge on 19 September.

The father-of-six had overcome cancer two years ago and was treasured by all who knew him, his family said.

"His adventurous shenanigans started at a young age and never stopped," it said in a statement.

"His strength and fierce determination saw him bravely battle cancer and overcome it, only to sadly be lost two years later in this shocking incident.

"His family was his pride and joy and they are devastated by the news.

"He will be deeply missed as he was one in a million and treasured by all who knew and loved him."
