Like many on here ,I was immensely saddened by the death of Damon Peacock last year.
https://yacf.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=119610.msg2633802#msg2633802 One of the funniest moments of LEL 2017 for me occurred on the return leg.
Leaving Alston , a hatchback car came past me with Damon sitting in the boot , with the door open, filming riders slogging uphill.
Damon and I chatted about sheep , hill farming and cycling. After a few minutes he was off and I didn't see him again.
I last saw Damon and Heather somewhere in France , in the middle of the night, not filming , just watching and supporting PBP riders.
If you get to Yad Moss, pause and think of Damon.
If you watch this, I will guarantee that "Keeping the dream alive " will be in the background.
It was Damon's tribute to some AUKs who are no longer with us . Damon appears in the last few minutes.
