Police said he was travelling along Marlow Road, towards Marlow, when the cyclist collided with a tree, no other vehicles were thought to have been involved.
His family and work colleagues have now been paying tribute.
His wife Camilla, and children Emily, Evan and Holly said:
“Simon was a beloved father and husband. He was a passionate cyclist, snowboarder and sailor and fitter than many half his age. He showed us to dig deeper, to ride harder and faster and to never give up. He taught us to be self-sufficient and honest with ourselves.
He was our motivator, hero and voice of reason – our everything. We will miss his terrible jokes, his smile and racing him on the slopes.”
The company for whom Simon worked for as a UK and International Sales Manager, has also paid tribute:
“Rest in Peace Simon Richardson, who was beloved and universally respected.
“Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife Camilla and his children Emily, Evan and Holly as we all come to terms with this colossal loss. Simon’s contribution is a profoundly important part of what built Endura into what it is today. His commitment and contribution helped shape the business and its culture and we would not have had the success that we have had without him.
"Thank you, Simon, for coming along for the ride for these last 11 years. It has been an enormous pleasure and privilege to have you as part of this eclectic family through Endura’s formative years. Your positive presence, impact and influence will live on here for a very long time to come. We miss you already.”
