Hey folks, just stopped by as I do from time to time and I saw this sad news about Pete. He was always very nice to me and I appreciated his honesty, sad news. Hope everyone else is well and having some fun adventures.8 points

So much BS. Marquez said previously that he would join any team that would be able to provide him the most recent bike. Knowing that, Ducati wanted to have Martin in red and Marquez on the Pramac. Marquez behaved like a kid that never heard the word "No" and said that Pramac wasn't an option. Ducati fell for it.3 points

Good to hear from you, the rumours that you were a human popsicle lost in the back of your camper on some frozen mountain are untrue then.2 points

I’m never allowed to forget when I got “rumbled” cleaning engine bits in the dishwasher. You’d think I was drowning puppies in it.2 points

I am sure this will be classed as gay but I don’t really care. I wanted to say something about Pete. It's funny but even though we never met I have come to look on him as a friend who I spoke to most days. Please you that knew him much longer and better than me do the same, I and I am sure others would like to read it. I liked his manner and the way he would call me out for being a cunt when I was, straight talking honest friends are rare and should be valued. Sometimes you need to look at yourself and what you are doing. He ran this website well and showed a tolerance and the same friendship to some character’s with pretty extreme views not just because of what they could offer to the place. Also because he saw value in them and their views. I liked that, regularly talking to people I would not in most walks of life is a good and valuable learning experience. That environment Pete created with his forceful personality. If you can get by In this sometimes harsh forum it makes you a stronger person in everyday normal life, I liked that too. Interesting place run by an Interesting Guy. I liked his consistent hatred of most things Chinese and Indian unless he was buying them, his quick fire consistent POS posts made me laugh. His refusal to see any value in the same unless of course it was something he bought. Bloody Negatron but Funny Guy. Also I think sometimes we forget of the time and effort and finance he put into this place, because he believed in it and it was his creation. To our benefit of course. Oh and the last thing that I liked was talking to him was often like taking a trip back the the 1970’s with his views and some outlooks on life, my formative years that I look back on with fondness for all the flaws of the time. Good Guy Hopefully we can continue in this forum and stop it going to hell in a hand basket, which it may very well do without him. Pete a friend I’m going to miss. The self proclaimed Rugged Individualist. Cheers Shad Man1 point

He proves you can be one of the greatest riders, fierce and very committed, but a twat as well. Being a twat is not connected to being a genius , plus, if everyone has been telling you you’re the greatest ever since you’re 15, you’re likely to go and believe it.1 point

It's a page straight out of Enzo Ferrari's book, Ducati is even more cruel to riders than Honda is/was. They couldn't give a shit if the guys are happy and working together or not, if they win out of hatred they couldn't care less1 point
