Early life and career

Born in Lochgilphead, Argyll and Bute, MacIntyre moved to Fort William when he was ten years old. He started cycling at the relatively late age of 18, and won the Tour of the North in Northern Ireland at the age of 23. He represented Scotland at the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester. He was the first Scot to win the British Circuit race time trial championship, in 2006, and won the British 25-mile time trial twice, in 2006 and 2007.

Death

On 15 January 2008, MacIntyre was involved in a collision with a van at Carrs Corner on the A82 road in Fort William. He was airlifted to hospital, but died of his injuries on the way.

MacIntyre was married and had twin daughters, who were eight years old at the time of his death. A memorial fund launched by the Braveheart Cycling Fund to provide assistance to MacIntyre's family [cite web|url=http://www.braveheartfund.com/News.asp?Nid=241|title=Jason MacIntyre Memorial Fund|publisher=Braveheart Cycling Fund|date=2008-01-16|accessdate=2008-01-17] had, as of 2008-01-17, raised £8,000.
