Wow, a wonderful tribute to a road race great.

Do we miss him, or what?

I still smile over his post race comment:

"I finished second today and you cant do better than that"

Thanks for the memories Richard and thanks for that tribute.

"Keep her lit boys" was that a quote of Richard's? Can anyone explain it's history? I saw a great T shirt with it written above a print of Richard. Does anyone know if they are still available? alf

Lorry drivers maybe ??
