We had all better arrive around 1430 then, to ensure drinks are in hand

I may not ride anymore and can't make the drinks for Saaz (John) I will raise a glass to a true and good man of the riding community

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.

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.

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 ....

Blue Owl and I went to Darwin's Stokes Hill Wharf to have a quiet drink and remember Saaz

We had a small family gathering today, so I told his story, and we cracked a nice red and toasted John. Ride on, my friend.

Here is a pic from today's farewell to saaz held at the Northbridge Brewing Co, a most appropriate location chosen by Brock.

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.

Brock · « **Reply #44 on:** October 11, 2015, 10:39:02 PM »

I was drinking a beer brewed in the establishment, a dark and hoppy beer called a mild. Fitting I thought

P.S.

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

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
