Did a little digging via Bing on this lazy Saturday morning.

He used the same member name, H2RICK, on lots of forums. But hasn’t posted on the others in some years.

Per his member profile, he retired in 2012.
Per this link, he used to work at TJ’s Cycle: https://herbsboats.wordpress.com/boats/

TJ’s Cycle website in Calgary, Canada: https://tjscycle.wordpress.com
But it looks like that business closed: http://trillionindustriesblog.blogspot. ... ed_10.html

The owner of TJ’’s Cycles, Mark Blundell, has a Twitter account. His last tweet was in 2014.

ok thanks. last I heard he going to do a bit of visiting in the usa. but that was about 6 or 7 years ago.
llok like he has either packed in biking or gone through those pearly gates.
if he still with us he'll be in his mid 70's or older.

I hope he's still OK ... his knowledge & advice was tremendously valuable to me when I got my 380 back in '98.

Rick is doing just fine - grumpier than ever and still riding his GT550 when the weather is nice. :D Like me, he has stepped back a bit from many of the boards for a bit. 8)
