He, along with his mum and dad lived next door to me and my parents, and Rod was born there. I was allowed to hold him when he was a few hours old, me being 12 at the time. I spent many hours playing with him, and pushed him miles in his pram.
My husband and I watched him start his career from the very beginning, my husband helping in a small way as we were bikers too. I have a scrapbook of all Rod’s events, good and not so good, which I treasure.
We did correspond but lost contact over time. I am now 86 years old and I would just like him to know I am still here and think of him, especially on his birthday.

Dear Eileen, Thank you very much for your communication and your memories of Rod. It was a pleasure to read and I’m sure that he has also enjoyed reading this letter in CR.
Best wishes,
Tony
