Two more victims of the Shoreham air crash have been named by police today.

Friends Dylan Archer, 42, and Richard Smith, 26, were heading on a cycle ride in the South Downs when disaster struck.

IT consultant Mr Archer, a father of two who lived in Brighton, and Mr Smith, who lived in Hove, were due to meet up with a third friend.

Relatives of Mr Archer, who grew up in the Midlands, said he had a life-long passion for bikes and cars - and rode the bike he made himself on the day he died.

They said his "dry humour and generous nature" will be missed. He leaves his partner of 17 years, Alice, their two sons, 15 and 12, his sister Ruth and two-year-old niece.

After going to university in Birmingham, Buckinghamshire-raised Mr Smith worked in a bicycle shop in Cosham, Portsmouth, Hampshire, his family said.

Two years ago he moved to Hove where he worked in marketing and web development at ActSmart, a firm which specialises in providing advice to the cycle industry.

His family said: "Richard's passions in life were for his family, friends and his beloved bikes. His boundless enthusiasm was infectious. He was a truly wonderful, caring and loving person."

"He leaves behind his partner Victoria, his parents Julie and Jonathan, and two much-loved brothers William and Edward," the family continued. "He will be so sorely missed by all who knew him."

ActSmart director Jonathan Harrison said: "We are all totally devastated by this tragedy and are still trying to come to terms with the loss of such a young, fun, individual who had endless potential in life and in his career."
