George Barber has passed

[Sadlsor]

A great man and very nice gentleman, I had the honor of meeting him on several occasions through the decades.
A sad loss for our community and for the motorsports world.

From Wikipedia :

Barber started collecting motorcycles in the 1970s. It is "the world's largest collection of motorcycles and it is in the Guinness Book of Records with more than 1,400 motorcycles covering all timelines from vintage to modern. He was inducted into the Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2014.

All my condolences to the family and friends.

Interesting side note - He let Motus (now gone) use his old property.
IIRC, he was also an investor in Motus.
