Barnachea Struck from behind by a Speeding Motorbike; Bike Sustains Irreparable Damage

Santy Barnachea, an active rider-coach and mentor, was struck from behind by a speeding motorcycle in his hometown in Pangasinan on 3 January 2026, at 8 am.

According to Mr Almojera Ranjit, a local source at the scene: “Liliko siya sa tulay patungo San Quintin, tapos mabilis naman yung naka-Honda Click na matanda—ayun naabutan siya sa likod ng gulong niya. Hindi nya alam na liliko si Santy. Medyo ok naman na siya [Santy] at medyo pi-pilay-pilay [limping] nga lang maglakad. Yung bike niya idol ang laki ng damage.”

The accident resulted in irreparable damage, and the bike was rendered unserviceable.
