Great man indeed!
The one thing you didnt say there was about Colins amazing modesty and availability.
He always takes time to answer questions. I have seen him in different situations asurrounded by interested fans and he is more than happy to chat. One occassion that springs to mind was at Sacrboro a few years back. He rode the URS outfit on a demo and was so enthuisiastic about it and its history. No question was ignored.
His contributions both to sidecar racing AND the British bike scene remain enourmous.
Yes, I think I will bu a copy....

And he had a lot of success as a team manager, he gave Karl Muggeridge when he first came over here.

And he looked after my hero - the late Brian Steenson , when he was riding 350/500 seeleys back in the 70s.
