Tango Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I just wanted to thank @Pedro, it must have been hard for him to be the bearer of this terrible news. I know that many of us have questions relating to Pete's passing, but I think that we should hold onto them and not burden @Pedro any further. I'm sure that he will pass on any relevant information if it comes into his possession. Given the norm for quick burials in Spain I guess that it will be unlikely that any of us will be able to attend in person, unless we hear otherwise, we will need to console ourselves with keeping him in our thoughts until he is laid to rest. Once things have settled, then maybe we'll need to have the discussion on how to keep this place running as part of Pete's legacy, but I think that we need to keave the timing of that until @Buckster and @boboneleg feel it appropriate. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 Tomorrow, Pete's family will have a small family only ceremony in Granada, and then he will be cremated. His ashes will be brought home. They would rather not have anyone else there. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Can't believe it's already time for goodbye to such a good guy. Thanks for letting me know - you know who you are Always enjoyed your vibrant full of life opinionated self Pete, that's why I followed you to this dinosaur filled poop hole I think that was part of the fun we shared. A serious and light hearted touch in the same measure. If reincarnation is true then you're definitely off dog level Hope you enjoy the ginormous top box in the sky XXXXXXXXXXXX xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooN Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I was bringing a group ride back from the alps / vercors when i got Bucks message this morning. It took me a while to process. By the time i got halfway home it was pissing down with rain an thunder claps you could hear over the exhaust noise. It 30 odd years i have rarely ridden in such bad weather. Thanks Pete. 5 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Fallsalot Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 So he's still dead then, i came on tonight hoping it was just some joke he set up with you lot to try and wind me up as payback at me for trying to wind him up, A bit of a sick joke but i would have been happy if it was one. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Which I think is doubtful) this did happen, I would do my upmost to travel to wherever in Wales that the scattering happens...
