Here's Something I had in mind about Geoff,

1. Geoffrey, Geoff, Son, Brother, Uncle, Husband, Dad, Neighbour, Friend.

I have known Geoff for at least 25 years, and he was all of the above and more. His life with Jill was his happiest time.

Geoff was my mate.

2. Geoff enjoyed lots of things, skiing, golf, becoming a pilot but mostly he enjoyed motorcycles. He was a successful builder of classics, modern & custom motorcycles. We built a V8 engine trike once as well as many others together. It was always a good moment to fire one up fro the first time & Geoff would have a big smile on his face and say "Cushtie!"

3. Geoff enjoyed racing in may disciplines; motocross, classic racing etc. Whatever it was he would have a go. Once , we were drag racing our Norton Commandos, really giving it some, side by side. They sounded so good. He pulled just ahead and looked back at me with a big grin on his face, he was loving it.

4. Geoff was always a good guest to have along to our company do's. One year, a table of about 20 lads had a food fight. Not started by Geoff, but stopped by him. He picked up & planted a generous portion of tiramisu on top of the instigator's head. There was a brief pause by all, it could have turned into a John Wayne fight, but it was so funny, no one could get cross.

So lets talk and remember Geoff with fondness.
Not gone, just see you later mate.
Richard.
