IN THE FIELD...
HAGGS BANK UK
Sat with a soft smile under an old hat was
Bernard Smith, a rider that took the love of his
life around the world to witness and feel all
that the world had to offer. Her name was Cathy
and she was blind. What came from that was
one of the most insightful books to ever come
to print about the insights of the world
witnessed through other senses. Bernard
would not thank you for any form of adulation
but sit down with a polycarb cup of coffee or
tea and a smile and chat with the man and you
can come away a better person for it. I also
came away with an idea for how to stop losing
your side stand puck!
