The passing of Floyd Garrett

This weekend my godfather of motorcycles passed away. Here are a few pictures from my most recent visits with him. I will miss him dearly. Words cannot convey the loss.

Sorry for your loss. This is a loss in the vintage motorcycle community. Floyd was a great and kind contributor to Fishtail West, the Velocette Owner's Club newsletter. He will be missed.

Our thought go especially to Floyd's friends and family.

Thanks for posting the news of Floyd's passing on the Velocette Chat Room. And thanks for sharing these great photos.

I'm sorry to see Floyd go. He came out west occasionally and I met him on the Velo rallies. His passion for riding and for his MAC was obvious. Please accept the condolences of our extended Velo family to you and to Floyd's family.

regards,
Pete
