Where did you get this from?? I saw Gavin a couple of weeks ago at the Algoa Cup and he's had to quit riding because of epilepsy, but nobody said anything about a tumour. I sure hope that this is a misunderstanding and not a new developement.

I also spoke to him on Cup day, told me about epilepsy and that's why he had to stop riding. If this is true all the best to him and his family, hope he recovers soon. A legend here in PE - Stickman(tu)

I was with Gav a month ago and he said he was suffering from epilepsy and therefor could not continue riding.
