Andy900

Post by Atomic »

I am sad to report that Andy900 passed away yesterday having suffered a heart attack. He had been on rides with some of you guys in the past but did most of his riding in Dorset. He marshalled many charity rides and held a few himself for a children's charity in Dorchester.
If there is a request for a motorcycle escort for his funeral, I will post it here.

That's a shame.
Always seemed cheery and light hearted.
Thoughts are with the family.

Sadly, I'll have to jib out of this as my bike won't be ready. Hope someone from SWB can get there to represent us.

Thanks for attending Smiler, it was good to see you, albeit briefly. That's the 3rd time in 6 months I've seen you, lol. Attendance was good with 66 bikes. Service was appropriate for Andy, 'Sweet child of mine', 'She sells Sanctuary' & 'Born to be wild'. Along with ' A Biker's prayer' it was quite moving.
