We lost Gavin Williams today due to a COVID induced heart attack🥲🥲🙏🙏

Gavin has a wild collection of iconic MX bikes purchased from the world market. His collection is insane. A must see for any enthusiast.

I was not close to Gavin, we would share a few words at each event as we both were always busy with our own agendas.

Rest In Peace Sir and I'll be making a huge effort to visit your Warehouse...and will share your collection far and wide.

Search Gavin Williams on FaceBook to view some pics....you will be amazed.

I see bikes like the early Honda TL or the nice set of KX500s and I know we lost one of "our guys". I am sorry for you and yours. Hell, I'm sorry for us. All of us.

May this year get a helluva lot better for one and all.

Ya know, sittin' here thinkin' about it...this year has been and continues to be "almost" 2020 rough; but, we will look back on it...someday...over a pint and we'll have some stories to tell.

We need to have that pint at an MXoN someday where we can all tell lies, talk shit and cheer on our perspective teams.

Until then,

Manny

ps: very stoked that you pulled thru and are "back".

Having actually ridden / raced a lot of those years’ bikes, I just realized how I’m “vintage” as well. Explains a lot!

RIP Gavin, we're at a loss without you.

Gavin’s Facebook page proves this guy was more than just a collector. He lived life to the fullest and treasured his family. The type of person we all want to meet. Or be…
