Rip
I thought of Marma-Sam too. I donāt have any contact details for him, but rightly or wrongly I assumed that heād probably know anyway as he was a friend of Ruth and her sister(s).
Very sad, I passed the spot yesterday, itās not far from me RIP
Very sad news. When l rode with her she was always bubbly and full of beans and l loved her accent. She will be missed. RIP Ruth

Thank you @TimR. I would like to attend the ride. Does anyone have contact details for her sister please?
Met her a few times. Terrible news. RIP !
Heads-up all. Iāve spoken to Slanās sister, Sarah and there is a funeral escort ride organised. Details below.

If anyone from LB would like to attend and give her a nice biker send-off, post up here as well as considering the distance, it might be better if we head up together.
Pencilled in my planner
At 500+ miles it will be too much for the average soft southerner. The only details given are that it will be on the afternoon of August 13th in Stockton-on-Tees.
Terrible to hear. RIPā¦
Always sad news to hear losing someone, thoughts go out to her family.
Stunned by the newsā¦
I havenāt attended many LB meets for some years - I remember a meet about 10 years ago at the Ace and talking to a woman about 25 years old who had just bought a Triumph Street Triple which sheād customised with two broad yellow stripes with black pinstripes over the grey paintwork - it looked fantastic and classy - I have a feeling that was Slan who later went on to buy a Daytona 675ā¦
Can anyone confirm that was her earlier bike?
Could have been Hels?
Pretty sure Ruth didnāt pass her Category A Licence until 2014 and her first Triumph was all white. Here she is
pause it at 3:21 or youāll miss her

If my fuzzy memory is correct, she went straight from a 125 to a Triumph gen2 675R. The āMaytonaā!. Then another gen2 675R. Her last bike was a Triumph gen3 675 which was customised with silver holo bodywork.
I think thatās the āHarrisonā Honda CBR125 at 3:19 passed from Sophie to Ruth to Sarah. I remember the Maytona but canāt remember why the D became an M??
Its come to me, Maytona because the one previous owner was James May (Iām allowed senior moments now Iām a pensioner)
Ah my bad memory - It could have been Hels, long time ago now
