Shocked to hear this, for a long time Tim was Foc-U, his posts always made me chuckle and sometimes laugh out loud, the (sadly too few) times spent in his company are cherished memories now. RIP ya big lump o'sex xx

RIP mate, you were the first to pm me when i joined FOC-u and badgered me into meeting up at the Silver Ball all those years ago only to greet me when i arrived with a cheesy grin and a V sign. Oh how i'll miss having my kill switch flicked at traffic lights......i will admit to shedding a tear this morning.

Had to sign up again as could not remember my login deets....which took some time with slightly bleery eyes.
Marchride - named so after getting his bike in the march issue of Ride magazine, Tims imagination had no boundaries.... especially in terms of what is acceptable to say about a lady, in front of said lady if it would embarass her or people around her.
Mix this with his particular penchant towards jumpers of a festive, yet none christmas variety....he was most certainly a right character.
Around from my most early days at the club, my first ride out I think was his too, until Chalky and Eddie dragged him to the Silver Ball etc. Always found at most events...north/south/east and sometimes as west as the fountain inn...a true club regular and serial texter.
While not having seen him in a little while, my heart sank a little at seeing this news.
Sad news indeed, following on from the previous replies it will come as no surprise to hear me say that I was always glad to meet him at FOC-U and other events.
To those who were there , just been watching the DVD with a tear or more in the eye . Happy times but now two less of the suspects around and that isnt so happy
Jules and I have spent the evening on and off reminiscing about Timbo. Reading this thread and the posts on his Facebook wall have brought a tear or two to our eyes but not from sadness.
Seeing the picture above from Gassit had us both laughing as that picture was the subject to much abuse and editing by members of FOC-U.
