Rictus - for looking out for bikes with us, checking out the SV when it got killed by a Corsa and offers of the loan CB750 at various points.

Sid Squid - for endless technical advice, fixing of bits with welders and other tools I'm not allowed in the house and general advice on life

Jambo - for his look of astonishment when most work on my SV usually involves a hammer, a 2ft breaker bar and lots of swearing.

Widepants, Gary, & Gid- for just being you!

All the bosses- Kevin Jones RIP, before my time but I wish I'd met him... Admin John Tapley, Jonboy, and of course Fizzwheel, who is in this list twice because he's the MAN. Without these people there would be no .org, so worship them There's too many other admins, mods and techies who deserve a mention.

Technical-wise- Sid Squid is the man... He can diagnose faults I can't find myself from the other end of the country And Zadar basically made my bike possible. 21Quest, Rictus, SVRAsh, Mike numbers and... what was his name, PeteTong? All for help and inspiration to commit madness upon a perfectly good motorcycle. And Bartyboy and Big Al for all the help with paint. Lots of others here but those guys are the ones I owe a lot to.

And non-technical stuff- Pete and Lissa for putting us up on the way to the AR and for doing so much to get the Massacre going... Mr and Mrs Luckypants for offering the same on the way back, though we didn't have to take it up. Blue Flame for randomly inspiring me to ride to the far end of the country 3 times. And everyone who I've just met and said hello to, right up to everyone who I've met and become real friends with, this site is great. Naming no names here. Oh, and Blue Flame, Cronos, Kitkat, Dirty Baz and SVTonyB, all of whom have at one point or another picked my bike up for me

The entire AR08 team- this one especially because it was such madness along the way but went off perfectly! Obviously special credit to Viper and Fizzwheel here, but there were loads of people involved.
The entire AR07 team
And the entire AR06 team.
You all know who you are. I've never known anything quite like the AR, it's such a brilliant event and it doesn't just happen, it's months of hard work for the guys involved.

Jim @55 for fixing my Scottoiler when I'd just joined the Org and neither he nor anyone else knew me from Adam.

Northwind, YC, Spannerman, Sid Squid and anyone else who can be trusted to provide useful answers to stoopid technical questions. You've saved me so much money on mechanics bills I almost feel I should buy you a pint. Almost.

Dicky Ticker and his Essex Lounge bitches for making me feel welcome on their pilgrmages north and showing me new roads in my own backyard.

Everybody who has put their own time and effort into organising a rideout, social, tour or massacre that I've attended and who I probably forgot to thank at the time. (Hope you read this.)

Sid Squid and Bear armed and ready to fix a possible puncture in my rear tyre at the ace cafe.

Unfortunatly, whilst I got away with it, Soulkiss didnt but you know, it was so nice to see everyone prepared to help out other people. It was the first time i'd met any orger's that day

Pete and Lissa for being so kind and apologetic for scaring me at AR08. They ride pretty fast, but they are very considerate

Dan aka wrc63 for telling loadsa people about my degree result on the first night of AR08. I thought that was pretty nice. I think he was too drunk to know what I got the degre for though
