As we go in to the Christmas celebrations I thought we could take the time to remember and raise a glass to those Carpedians no longer with us, even though at least one of them would say “you soppy w****r!” So cheers to Steve (Sagalout) Andy (Moose) and Chris (Tedeum) 

Please feel free to mention any of the guys you knew.

Happy riding fellas, wherever you are!
