Former AMA 250cc Grand Prix racer Adam Neal died August 15, in Zurich, Switzerland, at the age of 35.

Illinois native Neal raced in the AMA and CCS Midwest Region during the late 1990s until a crash during practice at Brainerd International Raceway, in September 1999, left him a quadriplegic.

Even after his career-ending crash, Neal was still very passionate about motorcycles and continued to attend races. Neal is survived by his mother, father, and two sisters.

A Celebration of Life Service in Neal’s memory will be held September 13, 2003 at the Peoria Community Church, 2906 N. 12 Oaks Street, Peoria, Illinois.

Neal’s family has requested that donations in his name be made to:
