Hairy Bikers

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Thanks for that - I couldn't watch it last night as I'd have been too emotional. Will give it a couple of weeks take a couple of brave pills and venture onto iPlayer to watch the rum bugger one last time.

It’s the perfect ending really for him, in terms of the TV show and friendship with Si.

It hits us more as it’s two genuinely decent chaps with a genuine kinship doing what they love. It’s authentic.

Shit, I didn't even know he'd died. He's a local celebrity back home. I'm surprise my mum didn't tell me.

RIP Dave. Some great TV over the years.

There are loads of vids on the socials tonight of the Dave Day ride out - 300 miles if you did the whole thing but there were 10k + fans riding - a fitting tribute.

p.s.

This afternoon it would have been handy to have a filling station in Barrow In Furness

We joined at Knutsford, a great day, somewhere between 35,000 and 45,000 bikes too part. What was more surprising was that every bridge over the M6 had people on it waving , literally tens of thousands of people. A lovely tribute to a really nice fella.

46k plus - Dave had a universal appeal and much loved

Wow! I thought it was a lot when we were still queuing about a mile away to get into Kendal Services and the front of the convoy had left , and the services were rammed.
