Tom Teesdale passed away

Re:

Very sad news. He was a master, well respected far and wide.

The 88 Fishers were inspirational.

While doing something he loved. You can't ask for more than that.

Sad to say but indeed we all go sometime. While doing something you love while surrounded with cyclists,friends and colleagues.
 
Tom was responsible for (among a long list of other things) creating the prototype frames for Barracuda when they first started out. I spoke with him a little, a couple of years ago and he was very generous at sharing info from the time period. Great fella.
 
Re:

Terribly sad, that he will not share his iconic sense of craftsmanship around the world any more. Very proud to have a perfect frame that he built for me.
