glrnet Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 I'm so sorry to hear this Stephen. God Bless your Dad, your family, and you. Quote
Chesterfield Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 You have a lot of friends here Stephen, whenever you may be down and dont feel like talking face to face with people you know, there will always be someone here. Wishing you and your family the strength to cope at a difficult time. Quote
350zStephen Posted March 5, 2011 Author Posted March 5, 2011 Hi all, long time no speak. Zed has gone, bought myself a Boardman MTB Comp, which I highly recommend, and been training hard for the run. I'm also doing the Glasgow to Edinburgh 51 mile cycle which should be great Raised £110 for Macmillan by selling cakes in work, which is excellent. I have also done a few football cards. Started bike lessons also, I passed my CBT last Tuesday, have my theory on Wednesday, and should hopefully have a full licence in a few weeks. Looking at getting a 600cc Suzuki Bandit, or Yamaha XJ6 My dad is greatly missed, and there is a huge void there that will never be filled. But hopefully by raising some money for Macmillan, I can also help others in that are currently living with cancer. Went to the Motherwell v Celtic game on Sunday, which was my first game since my dad passed away. Sat in his season ticket seat, and Motherwell beat Celtic 2-0. It was Motherwells first victory against Celtic for 6 years. I'm sure he will have loved it from the best seat in the house. Hope all is well here, and I will hopefully be back in a 350z or 370z in the near future. Stephen. Quote
LRF4N Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Good to hear ur holding strong Stephen. Hope u raise more for the fund as well. Take it easy on the bikes Oh and that win over celtic was a good one let's hope the gers can catch up now Quote
Millzzz Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Unfortunately, I've only just caught this thread. Stay strong pal & keep your chin up. Nice work on the fund raising, I'm sure your old man would be proud Quote
Sarnie Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Great work Stephen, your Dad would be proud I'm sure Quote
bronzee Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 He's always in your memories. It's wonderful that you are doing something to help others too. Quote
Chris`I Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Great work Stephen, your Dad would be proud I'm sure +1 Boardmans are excellent bikes for the money, great bits of kit. You'll love that and the bigger bike to bits, all great fun. Take it easy on a 600CC, they are a lot more powerful than you might imagine, especially if you have mates that have 1000CC+ willy waving, a 600CC is more than enough to keep up with almost anything.

glrnet Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Top man Stephen, really glad to see you doing so much for others and so clearly inspired by your Dad, you know he'd be proud of you. Loved that footy result too Stay strong buddy. Quote

Nice one mate. If you need any riding inspiration we can cater for that too: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=38473 Good to see you getting on ok after such hard times. Quote
Ricey Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Good to see your holding up mate. Keep up the hard work with the fundraising. Quote
geoff-r Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Fair play mate, reading this thread makes me feel somewhat selfish for the times I've felt like I've been hard done by when something has gone wrong. I have a huge amount of respect for you and all you've been through, even more for the fact that you're turning this around to help others, you're a stand up guy. I don't know you personally or knew your dad but I am sure he would be so proud of you! Hang in there and in reference to getting back in a Zed, treat yourself to a 370 Quote
