It is with great sadness that I have to post that Andy has lost his two year battle with cancer. He has passed away this week without any pain.
He will be sadly missed by many. As soon as I have funeral details I will post them if any of you want to attend.

Sad indeed, Andy had a wicked sense of humour. Rest in peace. Keep your chin up Steve, Andy will no doubt be in my thoughts when I’m in Scotland next week riding roads that we had previously rode with him.

Sorry to hear this. Condolences to all affected by this.
Andy always came an across as a bit of a character. In a good way.
Sad news Steve, but peace for Andy. I shared a few trips with him, and yourself of course. He had great general knowledge and a sharp mind. The ride around Scotland with you two was a great experience. RIP Andy

Hi all, I have spoken to Andy’s wife Sue today and she is still waiting on a date for the funeral.
I asked if it would be ok to ask his friends from the forum to attend the funeral and she said she would be delighted to see us there.
Obviously she wants to understand the numbers, so if you do want/will attend can you please let me know.
I did ask if there are enough of us who will attend if we could follow Andy to the service or from the venue to the wake on our bikes. She is more than happy for us to do this.
I will be attending and depending on the time of the service I will either stay over the night before if it is an early one or if it is in the afternoon travel on the day and stay over after the service. Can you call me (pm if you need my number) so I can let Sue know.
Hi all Andy’s Funeral will be on Friday 13th September 2024 at 12-12.30pm
62 Great Meadow Shaw OL2 7PX, then on to
Hollinwood Cemetery, Roman Road OL8 3LU for 1.30pm, after at the north Star
No flowers please all proceeds will go to Dr Kershaws Hospice.
Based on the time I will go over from Cheshire on the morning of the funeral and stay over in a local hotel, travelling home on the Saturday morning. If anybody want’s to join me then pm me and I will confirm where I’m going to be staying.
You’re a good man @Wessa, I can’t attend but it will be in my mind on the day
Ok I have booked into the premier inn at Roachdale for the Friday night 13/09, so can attend the funeral and not have worry about having a drink.
