Met Phil a couple of times at the Silverstone classic.
The last time was maybe four years ago, and he was still throwing his leg over a bike and enjoying it. So much so that when all the legends went out on the bikes (brand new fireblades I think) he stayed out longer and did a couple more laps than he should have. The Mrs and myself were chatting to his wife at the time and had a bit of a laugh and a chat with him when he eventually made it back in the paddock. Nice guy, still puffing away on the fags I recall.
Have got his autograph, probably a couple actually.
