    Paul Sample, the British cartoonist famous for creating the Ogri motorcycle comic strip, passed away on January 27, 2026, I think every biker loved his cartoons.

    RIP Paul. I loved the little things going on in the background of his Ogri cartoons.

    Bloody hell, not another famous name to biking. Loved his drawings of Ogri, they'll never be another bike drawer or character like Ogri. Thanks for the laughs Paul.
