Eddy was also a long time supporter of another organisation, giving up his time for over 25 years to the Hillingdon Narrowboat Association, who have made their tribute here: http://www.hna.org.uk/

It is fitting, therefore, that our Memorial ride in his honour will involve a ride to Harefield in Hertfordshire, home of the Hillingdon Narrowboat Association, culminating in a trip on the canals in the boats he spent so much time looking after.

The rideout will take place on Saturday 10 March 2012, setting off from Villiers Street at midday. We hope to see you there.

Please arrive 17:30 @ Villiers Street for 18:00 departure.

With all eyes now slowly turning to both the Mayoral race followed by the Olympics, now more than ever do we need to make our presence felt on the streets. Our message has always been simple & clear – motorcycles are part of the SOLUTION to inner-city congestion & pollution, and not part of the problem. Therefore, any authority seeking to tax motorcycles to park can only be seen as adding to the problem.

Our demos around Trafalgar Square have consistently & persistently “demonstrated” how motorcycles being driven like cars, ie not weaving in & out, effect the same congestion caused by their 4-wheel counterparts.

He was a passionate supporter of the campaign and a life-long biker. He was with us from the start and would always have a big smile on his face as he rode his, ever imaculate, ural combination on many of our demos.

Eddy was also a long time supporter of another organisation, giving up his time for over 25 years to the Hillingdon Narrowboat Association, who have made their tribute here: http://www.hna.org.uk/

He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Our thoughts go to his family and friends who loved him dearly. His memory lives on in all of us, particularly for his son Phil who is also a keen biker and will always have his dad riding alongside.

R.I.P. EDDY.

Ride on brother, ride on…
