Brian was one of the Palitoy team who kindly came to our VAME Meets in their heyday. RIP Brian and thank you.

It's very sad.

I think it was Brian's wife who went into a home. Brian went downhill quite quickly after that. I'm sorry we never got to show him the scrambler bike - Bob is still keen to see it though.

Have experienced Alzheimer's with my own Dad, I know what an horrible condition it is. RIP Brian and thank you

The bikes were very cool, I was building this one but never quite managed to complete the faring. He had great vision.
