Is there anyone on here who used to work for Cannon Couriers in London? For a long time now I've wanted to organise a reunion (including contacting as many from Aussie, South Africa and the UK as possible) but haven't known where to start. I figure there must be some of you on here (there were enough of us over there) and wondered if anyone was interested in getting something together.

(The prefix says North Island - but only because it wouldn't give me the option of all of New Zealand).

Hi Katman - I worked for Cannon Couriers from Oct 1989 to Dec 1991. Heaps of good memories, Tintin, Dan the man, Marc Clancy, Honda CB 350's (used to get them up over 105 mph !), Berkeley Square, riding in the snow, The Bricklayers Arms Charlotte Rd on a Friday after work, Sean Kay (originally got me the job), Foz and his Moto Guzzi. I remember when they first got the Suziki GS 500's. Good Times !!!!

13 calling on - was at canon from 88 to 93
i'm still in contact with a couple of the crew from those days - and know where a few more can probably still be found
Andystructible - were you Frank with the black FZR - looked after the Cobra fleet at one stage?

Nah Runt, that wasn't me, but I think I know the guy you mean. I was riding a katana for the last six months - up until the end of '91.
