Daniel Hughes, from Rhayader, Powys, was involved in a collision on the A470 near the town, but died
later at Hereford General Hospital.
His friends and family said they were devastated by the loss of "a young man who lived and
loved life to the full".
He had recently set up home with his partner Emma and was a keen sportsman who played rugby for
nearby Llanidloes and enjoyed mountain biking.
In a statement, Mr Hughes' family said: "He was popular, well liked by all those who knew
him, much remembered for his cheeky grin and after he had taken his time to get to know someone,
then that person would have a loyal friend for life."

Mr Hughes' family said he was educated at Rhayader Primary School and Llanidloes Secondary
School.
Their statement added: "He was a very fit and active individual who regularly played rugby for
Llanidloes and when playing in his home town of Rhayader, it would create much interest and teasing
amongst his friends. He also loved mountain biking.
"He was a very hard working and conscientious, having recently started working for a company
from Leicester as a service engineer, travelling throughout Wales, but always coming home, having
set up home together with his long-term girlfriend, Emma.
"His family and friends are devastated by the loss of a wonderful son, brother, uncle and
devoted boyfriend to Emma, but knowing that he died loving life."
