RIP Phil Gunn

At the Tamar Trial last weekend I heard that Phil Gunn had passed away...he founded the Rally of Discovery which started in Ireland and extended to England, Wales and Europe.
Apparently over 300 bikes followed his coffin.

I didn't know him well but he was always a real 'character' in the Rally pits.
Many years ago I spoke with him at the start of a special stage at the Cambrian Rally (I think) and I nearly passed out on the Whisky fumes from the previous night along with his jokes. A couple of minutes later he passed me on his HP2 like I was standing still even though my 644 was flat chat, a truly awesome sight.
RIP Phil.
