The news of his passing has quickly made its rounds throughout the BMX community with much sadness. Below are what some of Bennett's friends had to say about the news.
Denzel Stein: "The big man up stairs called this man home. I'm sure he knew that he was taking a legend and a idol from most of us. The game will never be the same. It's hard to even realize Kyle is gone. Forever miss and never forgotten Homie! Have some trails ready for us BMXers when we get there. RIP #KB88."
Derek Betcher: "Rest in peace to father, friend, Olympian, multi-World Champion, hall of famer, legend, and all around awesome person with such effortless style and flow, Kyle Bennett. I was always so inspired by watching you ride, and equally inspired by your humble personality. I'll remember all the good times, my friend. You'll be forever missed."
Aaron Ross: "RIP Kyle Bennet. The world has lost literally one of the greatest people and one of the all time greatest BMX racers to ride a bike. RIP K Butter. I will always look up to you. You will be missed."
