Below is a short e-mail I just received from Angela Jones and Barrie's daughters Mandy and Carol with the sad news that Barrie lost his fight against cancer yesterday. Barrie and Angela joined our club a few years back when they moved into their home in castle but as his health was not too good in recent years we usually only saw them at club dinners. Barrie was a cyclist through and through and his whole family followed in his enthusiastic wheel-tracks. He was very proud of his daughters Carol and Mandy as Carol rode for GB on several occasions and Mandy was World Ladies Road Race Champion back in 1982 when the championship was held at Goodwood in the UK. I'm sure that they were as proud of him as he was of them and I remember Barrie as a larger than life character who always put a smile on your face whenever you met him. Rest in peace Barrie and best wishes to his family.
