There was an article in Motorcycle Sport and Leisure within the last couple of years that detailed the 59 club. Excellent reading.

What an excellent life, well lived.

What an excellent article. I saw that he got an obituary in the Harold the other day. And what a splendid chap he was. A credit to the cloth. My illustrious and canonical namesake would have approved of him enormously. As did I. Strange the way that the Anglican clergy have always been attracted to bikes. I didn't know that Princess Margaret rode.

I didn't know that Princess Margaret rode.

Quite a lot apparently - rather enjoyed a bit of a ride.... Oh - well yes, motorbikes as well...
