Peter,

keeps those memories coming!
I remember Chas as a gentleman, too.
But that was purely from a fans point of view.
Joe Dunphy, Griff jenkins, they stir some memories!

But Richard Wyler?
We knew him for a different reason.
For of us bike race fans met him at Brands once and gor chatting.
He was an ok bloke, one of us.
I remember he rode one of the first American, export Bonnevilles
I ever saw. A goregous machine.
He joined us back at our whome base area (Heston) and I vaguely
recollect one of the girls in our group (a scen staright out of Grease!)
catching his eye.
I do remember him racing that Honda and a Greeves Silverstone (I think?)
at Thruxton.
Full circle!!

Oh, how much of my life I have wasted on bikes!!

I have just announced at work that I am taking early retirement
(just 7 months) and packing it in at the end of January.

Where has it all gone!
Now, I plan to waste my retirement, too!
Must get over to some Irish racing next spring.
