    Sincerest condolences to Trevour, Kristine and family. I always appreciated my relationship with Gawin, even as a punk kid buying 2 stroke oil(Golden Spectro btw cus he said it was the best) a few engine overalls and much more later at “the Honda shop” when it was down the street from Live Wire, I always felt Gawin treated me with a level of respect only due for someone beyond my years. I know Larry respected Gawin and considered him a good friend and I am certain he will be missed by many. Again, sincerest condolences and prayers to Trevour, Kristine and family.
