Duffers Has Left The Building

[Smokin Joe]

David Duffield departed this earth a few days ago. Famous for his Dufferisms and his lengthy descriptions of the local cheeses of whatever reason the race he was covering passed through, he could be irritating at time but I suspect he was regarded with a good degree of affection by most Eurosport viewers. Quite a decent rider himself, too.

Ooops, only read the article yesterday and though it was recent.

Silly me.

He was a lovely bloke, a proper bike rider, never ever lost the enthusiasm. He had "sort of" retired, but always had a fund of stories, a daft joke, and a smile. Nice way to be remembered.
