The group of bikies riding with Johnny Danger during his fatal accident yesterday have released a statement, explaining how they tried to keep their friend alive with CPR, saying his death has left them "shocked and devastated".

A spokesman for Wolfpack Incorporated, the group Danger was riding with at the time of the crash, released a statement to 1 NEWS today.

"We are devastated and our thoughts and prayers are with Johnny and his family and friends. Johnny was a friend and he will be deeply missed we had a lot of laughs together and still can't believe what’s happened," Gareth Williams said.

Mr Williams and other members of the Wolfpack saw the crash happen and rushed to Danger's aid to give CPR but to no avail.

"As the shock of situation began to set in everyone on site that was involved did everything possible and I would like to give those involved full credit to that and the response from the ambulance was fast also.

"Unfortunately, after the ambulance and other services arrived we had been informed he didn’t pull through. For those who knew Johnny knew he loved riding and having a laugh he was a solid bloke who loved a danger lager as long as it was backed up with the danger swig.

"Ride hard to your next destination Danger - we will see you soon," Mr Williams' statement continued

"If any of his close friends want to join your more than welcome, to all the family and friends we will be having the memorial in a few weeks time when we can find a venue big enough to accommodate," the post reads.
