Dick was a lovely bloke...always had time for a chat and to show you the 'special' stuff he used to make in the back of his shop in Orford Road. I think it's now a gastro pub.
I even remember him TT'ing on the E1 once - I must have been a schoolboy so 1976ish.
One day I'll sell the sprints he built for me...but not yet......
