    wow ... Another passing of the guard and a link to an entire generations past ...

    I know Geoff well. We rode Six Days together and many a ISDT / ISDE Qualifier. Most of the time he rode Can-Ams back then. He and Ginny Traveled in a beat up Pickup with a camper on back. I remember the time he gave me a Vegimite sandwich. Damn that crap was nasty ! LOL

    But those Aussies feel out of sorts unless they can get their mitts on some Vegemite. Had a room mate for a couple of years that had to have it
