Surfladle

 Very sad to have just learnt that Quest Adventure Bikes in Worthing has closed. John Paul Saville (I think that's right..) better known to most as just 'JP' , has been involved with bikes in the Worthing area since the beginning of mountain biking back in the Eighties. I am sure many of you will remember the advent of off road biking becoming the no wind alternative and as a way to stay fit over the winter months... many who have long stopped the sailing are still out on their bikes! I think JP may well have brought the idea of 'selling bikes' to Lee Appleton who at that time was running Sussex Windsurfing on Goring Beach (the land where it was is now a 'development' next to Worthing Yacht Club) and later moved the business to become 'High Street' based in the town centre. JP also worked in the UK bike trade but someone else will have to fill in those details as we cannot remember!!
