PaulB Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 I am a friend of Chris49, from Vigan (forum member), on Facebook and am alarmed to see messages on their saying he has passed away. I am praying this is not so as he was a very fit guy cycling huge distances almost daily. I was really looking forward to visiting him in Vigan. if anyone knows anything please can you keep us updated. Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to Chris only a couple of days ago and I saw a message from him only today about should he go out on his bike due to the weather. I certainly hope he is OK + his wife posted Photos of the Kids and no mention of any problems, Ron (Mogo) has his number maybe he can fill us in. He was on line just 2 hours ago so..........

Popular Post earthdome Posted January 6, 2017 Popular Post Posted January 6, 2017 Shocking. Hope his wife and children will be ok. He seemed like an OK guy on the forum. I had thought that some day we might meet if I was passing through Vigan. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not so old china hand Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 I always enjoyed his posts. I regret not getting to meet him. RIP fair winds and smooth roads. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jollygoodfellow Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Sad day and news indeed. He was actively fit and cycling often. If I recall he was going back to Australia soon to sort his pension. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OnMyWay Posted January 6, 2017 Popular Post Posted January 6, 2017 I'm shocked. I just chatted with Chris this morning and it must have been shortly before he went out. And then a short time later his wife posted a picture of his two beautiful kids. Peace be with you my friend. May your family be blessed in your absence and may gentle tailwinds be with you in heaven above. You will be missed. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
