Id forgotten the cheese on fruit salad breakfast! Havent forgotten though, being at a lunch stop and theyd got the order wrong and there was a spare lunch, Pete asking if its spare, was it ok to take it out to the homeless guy hed seen when wed parked up the bikes.
Glad I knew him, some people are just the guys you ride with, some wear hats they don't take off, some lean on their bikes when they take a rest
Some have memorable character who feature in the moments you remember that make you glad you were there, a snap from the lunch stop at Whiddon Down
and for the record I did not take this photo nor caption it as I am the guy in the grey helmet whom he is pointing at, photo is captioned KLEENEX IS A TEAPOT.
Petes funeral was packed today, as you would expect for someone so young.
The tributes echoed what you would already know if you knew him. You often find out things you didn't know about a person when you attend their service of thanksgiving. It was no surprise to find out that everyone thought he was just a genuinely nice bloke.
The motorcycle outriders for the cortège was a lovely touch and greatly appreciated.
Sorry to hear of the passing of Pete.
I have only just found out about the funeral, so not able to attend.
I remember when Pete first made contact with me. I believe it was when he moved to this area, and we went out trail riding. A good strong rider and genuinely a good guy to be with. Pete YOU will be greatly missed. John.
Took the long way back to the wake after leaving the cortège at Penn Inn and visited the last place myself and Hoc had seen Pete riding on T2T, 202-052
RIP Pete, as Trevor says, no surprise to find tributes confirming what we all knew, a genuinely nice bloke.
