As people prepare to gather together, all around the country, to celebrate and commemorate John's life and friendship, you may choose to keep this performance in mind. It seems to be to be a fitting memorial song for John.

In relation to the Perth function, is there any wives or partners attending?
My wife is interested in attending but she dosn't want to be the only one.
Regards

Hoffy,
Everyone is welcome. Please bring your wife.

My wife would prefer to hang out in Myers, so she will.

Hi Lionel,
I am afraid that i never had the pleasure to meet or ride with Saaz (john) having read all of the support given to him by the group i also plan to attend on Sunday.
Chris :blk13
-
All are welcome Chris ..... I am sure his family (true and extended on all forums he participated in) will appreciate the esteem that John is held in ....
-
Sorry but I am unable to attend this function.
However I will be there in spirit and will be toasting Saaz at the appropriate time .
My regards to everyone in my absence.
Cheers ,

Shiney suggested that we make this an annual event. To remember saaz, whizz and others who have ridden on.
I thought it was a good idea.
-
I was drinking a beer brewed in the establishment, a dark and hoppy beer called a mild. Fitting I thought

Good idea

Thanks for excellent memorial photo, WA guys!
Annual memorial a good idea.

Arvo All...
Well I thought as the song 65 Roses made popular by The Wolverines and as it's a challenge for raising the awareness for Cystic Fibrosis I thought yesterday I would attempt to incorporate the numerals 65 into remembering John.
So here is my attempt, which began yesterday and concluded at 1650 this arvo.

Thought a ride on such a lovely day would a fitting way to begin, so at 6.5 kilometers, I stopped and took this.
For those who can recall past threads about what other bikes you may have in the shed, John gave out many nudges on me disclosing a little more to what bikes I have collected and enjoy. So this is another one of em, my $65k up specked Vincent HRD

So to you SAAZ...a 6.5% Trappist ale. I would have gotten a bottle of one of your favoured drops from Holgates Mate, Road Trip I.P.A. but then I thought, Nah! It's only 5.8
Cheers Mate, I miss your arguments, ideas, agreements, but most of all your companionship.
Ciao the can:-)

That's a nice tribute Dicky :beer
It's good to see a pic of your Vincent HRD at last after hearing about it so much in the last few years too WOW:
