“We are here. If you want to come down, put flowers down, leave a message for Gabe, we are on the south west corner of Queen’s and St John’s,” he said in the clip, which was filmed in the Canadian town of Port Moody. “The Starbucks is across the street. Come down and pay tribute if you want.

“My brother loved to ride. He loved all of you. Thank you.”
