Leicestershire Police has published a statement on behalf of the family of Cody Armstrong, 25, who was pronounced dead at the scene following a single-vehicle collision on the A6003 in Oakham. 

Cody, who is from Wigston, was riding his black Triumph motorcycle at the time. 

In a statement from Cody's family, they said: 'Cody, our son, our boy, how we miss you. It breaks our hearts that we will not see you fulfil your dreams and aspirations. 

'You were just making an impact on your life, there is nothing you didn't achieve through your hard work, commitment and you were full of such determination. We are so proud of you from the lively, energetic, robust little boy you were to the man you had become. 

'The memories we have of you come tumbling down at all different times and are in random orders and as your parents we will cherish these memories for the rest of our lives. 

'As Cody's family, we would like to say a sincere thank you to everyone who tried to assist in saving Cody's life. Words cannot describe the pain we are going through but it helps to know that so many people tried to help him. Thank you all.'
