@Viny4 (Dan Smith), @Robert Watson, @flashvin (Carleton Palmer) and the late Keith Sides ( @Kjsides ).

To find out more about Keith Sides, click HERE. Keith was said to be a lovely guy who the Members from Vancouver had travelled many, many miles with. He was always great company.

I recall Keith Sides having a 1960’s issued California reg plate on his Vincent, with a stack of yearly registration stickers, very prestigious.

I think the sticker pile was about an inch thick. His adopted son Marty had the bike after Keith passed. A few years later Marty called me from a hospital I think somewhere in the Bay area having had a stroke. A bit later I tried to call him back but the number didn't work. Not sure what happened to him, or all Keith's bits and pieces.
