zzzak Posted May 20, 2024 Share Posted May 20, 2024 Yep, there sure is something missing. I got to thinking about when I first came across him, it was Maximum Bikes and I had my XT660X and Kwaka Z9r so about 2007, it's been quite a while. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It occurred to me that we have lost one of the old guard, we have seen a lot of this over the years in the motorcycle scene, some from natural causes, some bike accidents, other more tragic events like Chopstick Jim. It is the consequence of getting older that you see people pass on. I Pete’s case he will be missed because quite simply he was a giant in the line motorcycle scene, he had a unique way of bringing people together online. Unlike just about everyone else who runs forums, Pete never took himself too seriously, he was as fair game for piss taking as anyone else. I’m half expecting to find he has been interned in a crypt built in the shape of a Shad top box and still slightly smaller than the one fitted to his bike. The internet seems a little quieter this morning and the world feels a little emptier. Expand It's nearly 11:30 on Monday morning and I've not been exposed to some abandoned shit yet! There's definitely a void been left! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted May 20, 2024 Share Posted May 20, 2024 Nipped over to Caister this morn to fit a spark plug to a scoot I serviced a couple of weeks ago. Retailed locally at £27 to £35, got one off eBay for £17. Took the Dominator, wore the summer jacket and the sun went in. Bloody shivering when I got there. Sun returned for the ride home, much better. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
