Paul Gillingham

We are sad to report the news that Paul Gillingham passed away earlier this week.  Many of you will know that Paul was a much-travelled cyclist and a valued club member and friend.  He was also a highly accomplished journalist who put his writing and speaking skills to great use on a variety of projects describing his cycle-touring activities across the globe, most recently in a presentation he advertised in September 2021 describing his adventures “Freewheeling to Vienna”.  He will be remembered by many for his good humour and kind nature.
