R.I.P. Mike Patrick

jerrykap · Sep 23, 2017

Hi all,

Sorry to bring bad news but my longtime hero, friend and Norton off-road champion has left this mortal plane on Sept. 18.

I'm relieved that he's not suffering with illness any longer but he will be sorely missed and remembered by family, friends and the many competitors in the racing community.

C-ya, Jer

R.I.P.

I'll tip my hat to his bike in 2 weeks.

Great,

I hope to see you there? I asked Brian Slark to place a victory wreath near Mike's bike.

C-ya, Jer

Hallo Jerry,
My condoleances to you, his wife and family!
I'm the editor of the Norton Owners Club Flanders Branch club magazine. I'm writing an article about Norton Scramblers, like the one Mike was successful on. And on Mike himself too, who was the most successful off-road racer on Norton Scramblers, I think.
I'll be grateful if you could help me on more details about his life; when and where he was born, where he lived, what kind of job he was doing, ... maybe you can help me on a complete list with his racing honors too? I did find some in old magazines but not all of them I suppose. Or maybe you know where I can find this?
Many thanks,
Jan
