Andy Holden - Remembered 2 (12/01/2014)

An emotional day at Coventry as the Tipton "family" congregated to race and remember Andy Holden. The Holden family themselves were present (two ran) and joined by many members past & present both competing and supporting to pay tribute to our late friend.

Those racing gathered briefly alone and remembered him after a few words from Phil Nicholls. Before the start a minutes silence was held in bright sunshine on a course that Andy would have relished - mud everywhere!

Tom Holden summed it up perfectly "..Thought it was a great day and a fitting tribute to my dad"

It would be a fitting tribute to try and win the Midland XC, National XC & 12 Stage titles over the next few months - events that Andy played such a major role in over the years.
