Sad news received today is that Tom Wignall, ex Goodwill Motorcycle Hire / Joes Bike Team has passed away.
Tom was a quiet, well mannered, lovely old school English gentleman who ran Goodwill Motorcycle Hire in Chang Moi Kao road 20+ years ago, before partnering up with Joe for many years.
One of the original big bike hire shops in Chiang Mai, Tom always had a reputation for honesty & integrity, as well as reliable well serviced bikes.
He has been retired for several years & has been living in Tha Ton for the last few years.
Tom suffered a stroke & passed away yesterday - 17th September - peacefully at the age of 73 years.
He will be cremated on Saturday morning - 19th September - in the village where he living just out of Tha Ton.
Sorry but I do not have anymore information to hand.
However I do understand that his wife is not in very good financial position & it has been suggested that old friends may wish to provide some help.
More details to come once they are provided.
RIP Tom, you were a wonderful, polite sincere gentleman.
If anyone has any photos of Tom, would you please post them.
