Mantas Marcinkevičius, director of the Lithuanian Olympic Foundation, shared the news about the disaster on the social network.
“I still can’t believe it, I don’t want to believe it, it would be better to be an angry and unfortunate joke … Vaidas Rimkus was not only a cycling enthusiast, coach, but also a friend. Vaidas worked with children and adults, maybe he did not. He knew everything, but he loved his job very much, we all felt it and saw it.
He was always positive, with a smile, and he was also one of the few people who never refused to help. Vaidai, we will miss you very much. Until nausea, from the carousel of thoughts and feelings … so many plans are made for spring and summer, there is talk of yesterday … Life is so fragile, we are going to appreciate it! You were a good person and this will always remain in our memory, in our hearts and in the POINT, “wrote M. Marcinkevičius on Facebook.
