My thoughts are with yourself and your family James.

I've never been lucky enough to meet your dad, and from all the posts above I truly do mean that i wasn't 'lucky'.

Again, my thoughts are with you all.

James, I never met your dad either, but when you have shared your thoughts with others on this forum you feel like you've known each other for years. To read these messages is testament to how much your dad was held in high regard by those who knew him.

My thoughts are with you and your family at this sad time.

James,
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I met your dad on two of the Boxertrix weekends and we really hit it off, he was a lovely bloke. He always used to make me laugh when he referred to your mum as the control tower. Please accept my sincere condolences.

James, I'll also extend my condolences to you and your family. I've only spoken to Eon through the board though I saw him not so long back at Helmsley. I didn't see the bike until he rode off so never got to speak to him. By all accounts here and previously he was a good safe rider which makes such accidents harder to understand and the consequences hard to digest.

Again, thanks for letting us all know.

James,
We'd like to offer our condolences.
We were fortunate to meet and spend time with Eon at the Hawes meeting last year, he was indeed a true gentleman.

Our thoughts are with you and your family at this time.

Rob & Gail.

Very sorry to hear about your sad loss....

I am one of the many forum members who never had the pleasure of meeting your Dad but I offer my sincere condolences.

I read this post and especially what you wrote, a number of times yesterday and was rather affected by it James. I never met your father, having only joined in with forum discussions but he was by all accounts a man that will be sorely missed. I don't have any words that can make a difference and I cannot imagine how devastating it must be, but I genuinely feel for you and your family.

Steve

I too would like to offer my condolences, I never met your dad but from the messages from other trixters he was very well liked by all.

All is quiet now

the rush has gone

I've never travelled this far

don't know where I'm going

or where all has gone

the sun is bright

and there's a cool breeze

I wouldn't mind if this ride...



............. would last forever...
















i had no words at first so i thought i'd just post a picture, a ride to the skies ... .... then i just wrote down my thoughts ...

hj

very sad to hear

RIP

Hello again trixters. I'd like to thank you all for your amazingly kind words over the past few days, I have shown them to my mum and my sister and they have been of great comfort to us all. We have been reminded of the things we saw in my dad and the kind and heartwarming man he was. The number of replies shows the number of people who responded so positively to either meeting him or seeing his posts on the site. I think Eon would be embarassed by all this, but it only serves to further the pride I have in him.

The funeral should be next week and Stoney has asked if it would be ok if the trixters could come in their gear and on their bikes. I've asked the family and we all agree Dad would have liked that very much. If anyone else would like to come please don't hesitate to email me at jamescarlyle1@gmail.com soon, so that we can get an idea of numbers.

I think I'll be printing out the forum responses and taking them to the service as they really do say so much about my Dad. Your kindness is truly appreciated and all the offers of help overwhelming, Eon had some wonderful friends.

Thank you again, and I will see some of you at the funeral, stay safe,

James Carlyle.

Hi James,

I pm'd Andy (Stoney) about your dad's funeral as Ann and myself are up in Reeth on holiday from the aftenoon of the 15th until the morning of 18th April.

If we can make it, we'll do all we can to be there.

Richard.

Hello James,
Alan and myself will do our best to be there, Will contact stoney to make arrangements.

James

I'm sure I speak for us all when I say your Dad will be sorely missed.

Here are some pics that may give you an insight to our little club...

Hope it helps
