    I have only just caught up with this news.

    My Condolences to you and your family Logan.

    I spoke with Bruce just yesterday morning at Kopu before the other guys turned up.

    RIP Bruce.

    Very sad news, even if the rider is not personally known to us all, merely by being a rider he was 'one of us'. Condolences to the family.
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    Yes, you took the words right out of my mouth.

    RIP Bruce.

    Heck. I was on Zed's ride too and met Bruce then. I seem to recall that he took fairly conservative lines, so him running over the centre line doesn't seem to ring true for mine. R.I.P. and best wishes to the family KK.

    Heya Logan, condolences to you and yours.

    I know your loss is a lot more personal than any loss I feel, but I am certainly going to miss oldfart/Bruce's posts - he came across as a really neat guy.

    All the best to you and your family.
    Motorbike Camping for the win!

    KK - my thoughts are with you chap... you and the faily. I think Frosty put it best - if you need anything, feel free to put your hand up ok?

    Nigel

    All - do we have a pic of Bruce? Can we post it in here?

    Did that "Fallen Riders" page ever get off the ground - I recall there was a lot of discussion about a few months ago.

    Unhappy

    Sad news

    You sort of forget the dangers of riding motorcycles after a while.
    Hope it doesnt stop you from riding completely.
    It doesnt sound like he was the person that would wanted this.

    My Condolences to everyone who knew him.
