It is with great sadness that the Wanganui Mountain Bike Club gives a sad farewell to Charles Humphries. On Friday evening Charles passed away.

Any body who has ridden at any club event in Wanganui over the last 3 or 4 years will remember Charles for his great passion, humour and organisational skills when it came to running events. Without him all those trailer days and races simple could not have happened and he will leave a hole that cannot be filled.

Charles, we are all thankful for the time and energy you put into making our sport and club a better place and extend our thoughts to your family.

Charles funeral will be held at 2pm Wednesday at the Holly Family Church, gonville, Wanganui.

We would appreciate any memories or stories you may have of Charles to be posted as a tribute to this man of tireless energy.

Nigel Mcilroy
Wanganui MountainBike Club
