Folks Sadly the illness that prevented me from coming up to this years GMU has transpired to be more serious than expected. Bottom line is that I’m shuffling off this mortal coil in the next few weeks / months....probably. Firstly, thank you Forum for the help, support and laughs you have given me. I really enjoyed the Welsh GMU in 2018 and meeting some of you there. Secondly, I need to sell my much loved 2016 T120. I’ve always had a bike since I was 16. Selling it will be a bit of a wrench for me. I’m not really physically and emotionally able to handle the sale myself so my good friend Steve [email protected] is handling it on my behalf. At the Welsh GMU he was on the blue Yamaha super ten. I will though put an advert on this site and list Steve as the point of contact. Anyway, that’s about it. Good luck and health to you all and ride safe. Please forgive me if I don’t reply to any posts in response to this message. All the best. Eastbourne Mark
Words are inadequate at a time like this but are all we have. We are with you in spirit and are all making the same ride, just at different speeds. God speed...... to you and yours.
Mark mate I really don’t know what to say It was a pleasure to meet you in Wales and you and your family will be in our thoughts
This is getting too common - I know members on the R3 forum with the same issues. It makes you realise how life is often too short and unfair. My thoughts go out to you Mark and your family. We have never met - but your words have touched many - I can assure you of that.
Mark, We never met, and I don’t know where to find the words which could support you and your family... but you will definitely be in our thoughts.
Hi Mark Myself and Lisa are very sorry to hear this very sad news. There are no words I can find to say Apart from it was nice to meet you at the Wales GMU.. And if there is anything i can do just let me know. Stay strong brother. Tucker
EastbourneMark. So very sorry to hear of your illness and wish you and your family every bit of strength I can. Never met you my Brother but read many of your comments and enjoyed your input to our great family. We the inmate will stand by your side and if you want some one to carry the load just ask. We respect and care for you. I will pray for you and your family. I seem to have lost my way a little with my God but I will ask for just another miracle from him. God Bless & Keep you all. Joe.
Mark I’m so sorry to hear that your illness has transpired into this. It was good to meet you at the 2018 GMU. Thinking of you and your family.
Really sorry to hear this, my thoughts are with you and your family. Was a real pleasure to have met you and spent time with you at GMU2018. Stay strong dude.
Hi Mark very sorry to hear your news. I know we never had the chance to meet and greet, but we on this forum are all bound to one level or another, with each other. Very sorry for you mate...................................;
Mark, I don’t know what to say except I’m so sorry to hear this terrible news. We’ve never met but your post really touched me. I wish you and your family much strength in the weeks/months to come. Nikki
So sad!! In fact bloody awful!! Sorry, but words fail me at this time. God bless you, Mark. Oh fuck .... I've got summat in my eye!
Nikki expressed my thoughts and sentiments well, Mark. You and I have not met but I was touched and saddened to read your post. I also wish you and your family strength and a measure of peace in the time to come. We here at the forum are thinking of you.
Eastbourne Mark I forgot to mention there was no problem if you did not reply to the posts here for you and your family. I would ask of every member tonight to say a small prayer for you all that you find the strength to walk this dreadful path. Like Stevethegoolie just said I got something in my eye and running down my face here. But then I have always been a big Pusey when I read this sort of mail or see someone hurting. You know we are all walking the same road and we all care for you. Just remember you never have to feel alone or walk alone every single one of us are there with you and your family. Sorry now I am waffling. God Bless You All Joe.
Just a brief note of thanks to you all for all your replies. Despite my avatar strap line I feel remarkably resilient, some of this, I guess I can put down to the supportive vibe and kind thoughts you have made. My family are playing a blinder and the care from the community Macmillan nursing services is first class. I’m a lucky man. Many thanks to the Forum for giving my bike a featured page status. Appreciated. Kind regards, Mark.
Mark - as I said on an earlier post - you have touched the whole community, I know we all joke about, but posts - that make you sit up and think and realise that we winge over the most stupid things - that's grounding. Again my heart goes out to you and your family, all the best mate...
