Dave Stokes - Crawley Wheelers
It is with much sadness that we record the recent passing of Dave Stokes, of the Crawley Wheelers Cycling Club.
Dave was for many, many years a stalwart member of the London South District Committee, and played an active role in all time trial activities. He was a regular and well liked Time Keeper and Course Measurer and officiated at numerous major events, including his consistent appearance as Timekeeper for the Sussex Cyclists' Association 12 hour. He loved the longer distance events especially, and acted both as Timekeeper & Course Controller for the Brighton Mitre's Centenary Year 24 Hour event in 1994 - a task he undertook again five years later for the Mitre's National RTTC Championship 24.
Accompanied by his devoted wife Peggy, his blue & white campervan could be seen at countless events around Sussex, and beyond: from the local Club event to various Open & Association promotions. Dave also was a dynamic supporter of the Luton Arrow events and also the Icknield Road Club 12 hour, where he often officiated. As an Event Promoter Dave was in charge on no less than 22 occasions of his Club's famous Good Friday event - regarded by many as the true "pipe opener" of the season!
There is no doubt Dave's wisdom and formidable experience will be greatly missed by all who had the good fortune to have known him.
