Harry Taylor passed away Sunday
« on: July 29, 2013, 11:21:29 am »
The remarkable Harry Taylor passed away Sunday the 28th and it was a joy to have spent time with Harry on a few occasions, especially in his workshop, with ale in hand.  Such fun times, he was a hoot.  For those who may not have seen the piece I wrote on Harry in Issue 35, here it is again.

I had pleasure of trying one of Harry's creations (Combat Wombat, one of 2 (?) clutch drives w/Maico forks) at DD's one year. He was a genius. RIP Harry.....+
