Dear Bev and family so sad to hear of this, David can now rest in peace on the long long trail to quote his great uncle Ted with whom we all enjoyed our school holidays. Our cousin David may be gone but will not be forgotten. Rod.

Dear Bev and family, so sorry to hear of Dave's passing. I have ridden with Dave for the past three years or so, and came to admire his determination, and was so thankful for his friendship. I enjoyed both his dry sense of humour, the enjoyment of a nice coffee, and solving the world's problems with the rest of our MTB group, at Omaka after our rides. Dave will be sadly missed, but never forgotten.
