Dave was one of my very best friends. 10 years on I still have his number in my phone and can't bear to delete it. If I stop for a minute, I can still hear his voice in my head. We thought along the same lines on so many things and had some great times together. So many stories it would take so long to tell them all. On one VSCC Lakes trial we were competing he was marshalling. Nobody had, yet, cleared his hill most failing at around where Dave was standing but he'd worked out how to get through. When I walked the hill he told me to aim my off side front wheel for his foot - 'I'll move it at the last moment'. Did as he said and as we passed him Malc said 'Bloody Hell, that was close' (actually, he used a word other than 'Bloody')!! Cleaned the hill, though, one of the very few to do so all day.
Continue to rest in peace, mate.
