REMEMBERING GEOFF STEPHENS
Sadly we lost Geoff in July of 2018 but he will of course be
remembered by the many people who knew him.
I always thought Geoff was a most unlikely charachter to have taken
up scooter racing having been more of a ‘Greaser’ back in the day
riding archetypal British machinary. He was however a formidable
opponent on a scooter as he demonstrated in numerous classes.
I first met Geoff on joining Hampshire Union in 1974 and very soon
found that in contrast to a possibly gruff intimidating exterior was a
warm and freindly guy.
Geoff became known throughout the scooter racing fraternity not only
for riding but for his involvement in all aspects of the sport and his
passion for tuning. He excelled in all.
It was a pleasure to have known Geoff - assembled here are a
collection of photo’s I have collected from the 70’s and 80’s.
