Has anyone heard from John?

He has not posted for ages? 🤔

Second time in a week this has been asked.

Currently the answer is "Nobody Knows"


I was also wondering about Howard ...... we are being deprived of his lengthy anecdotes of rallying incidents from years gone by - along with his cheery good-nature.

I missed the thread about the squid.

Howard is struggling to ride with his arthritis.

Getting old sucks. 🙁

Not complaining you missed the thread - just interesting coincidence.
Sorry to hear Howard is struggling

Can't disagree with the second bit - but I'm not riding any more and I'm still here! Don't care, won't go away, you can't make me! :smt016

Well I've no idea who you're referring to ..... your hair is normally far more colourful than plain grey!

I was wondering about Howard too. I usually see him at Barton Bike Night but I didn't bump into him last week.
