I spoke on the phone to Simon Birch the other day. Older TCers will remember him as a true club character and stalwart in its early years. He doesn't have any time at all for website forums ("it's all humbug" he cried in festive fashion) and so he has dropped out of keeping up with club events.
Here's his 'rat' CB250RS, pictured at the 2002 annual rally.

He has started his own motorcycle repair business in Risca and seems to be doing well. He's still riding his rapid SZR660 and he has various other little thumpers littering his garage. He still rides a CB500 as well and I'm sure anyone who saw him on one of those will have the memory burned into their consciousness.
I will be visiting him next week for a catch up.
