I bought my ST2 from Paul in '97 when he was at Frasers. He was a gentleman and fellow rider. He also continuously sponsored the Thunder Rally & Moorong Spinal Unit, completely generously. He is survived by his wife Rene', and sons Riley 7, and Josh 18. Messages of support can be directed to Bikes & Bits, Tamworth. 02 6762 1557.

Yes, i never met the guy, nor do i confess to knowing him, but was a good mate of George from D'Moto and Andrew McGregor ( Frasers )......... who both were saddened by his death.
Can't say I knew him or of him either but it is never pleasant news to get out to the wider group of riders.
Name rings a bell, but cannot place him. Did he go to any of the DOCNSW meetings late nineties ?
