Chris Thain - RIP






I'm sad to report the death of Chris Thain, last October (2015) after what I hope was a short battle with cancer, as he was still racing at the beginning of 2015.

Chris was a member of the Phoenix in the 60s, riding with the faster boys of that era. He came to cycling with his brother Cliff who, I believe, remained more of a tourist, whilst Chris enjoyed racing as well.
When he married Barabara he moved south and joined the Farnborough and Camberley CC and was a stalwart for them for much longer than his tenure in the Phoenix.
