I met Jon flying model sailplanes about 20 years ago. One of the nicest guys at the field. After I crashed a plane he sold me one of his. I flew it many times and still have it. I kind of got out of that hobby then became reacquainted with Jon through the LBC. We rode together many times, often riding back toward the Highlands at the end of group rides. He was a great help to many club members and other cyclists. Jon was the guy who would change your tire, give you a tube, do the work without tire levers. Amazing. He is famously quoted as saying "the first thousand are the hardest." Rest in peace friend.
