AlanS, you are missed... The BXagon Challenge, which was dedicated to the memory of you and your invaluable contributions, raised well over £6,000 for Cancer Research UK. I hope one day we will find a cure for the curse that took you. RIP, mate.

Rest in peace Alan, a tragic loss to the club.

I'd also like to send wishes to the family of Roger Bradford who owned and ran the CX Centre who also recently passed away.

Perhaps the board could close for just a few hours on the anniversary of Alan S's death. I know Alan's postings from a few forum boards over the years, and whilst not a great contributor myself, I always lurked on his posts as a source of inspiration and knowledge.

In memory of a great contributor to the Citroen Community, and no doubt, beyond.

RIP Alan
