Found myself re-reading the whole thread reporting in his accident and passing. Brought back the shock and sadness at the news very keenly.

Yep, such a loss, I remember visiting the site where his accident happened with a couple of EAR members.....it made me realise just how careful we need to be but equally made it so much harder to accept that Reeder was gone, given that most of the bend was clear of trees and had a field behind

It must have been his time....that's the best I can come up with...

Now, where's that picture of him in green fishing waterproofs....
