Neil Pritchard tribute
« on: November 19, 2019, 01:06:10 PM »
Hey guys.  I am sure most of you have heard the sad news by now.  The 250r world lost a legend on Monday, November 18th, 2019.   Most of us have been on these forums for a long time and have known Neil through these forums for a long time.  I always enjoyed Neil’s southern charm and wit.  He had a way of putting things that always made me smile and chuckle.  Neil was not only a 250 R legend but a genuine good guy and a loving husband and father from what I could tell.  I never met him in person but you could tell what kind of guy he was from years of posts on the forums.  As a tribute to Neil, please post anything you would like to share about your experiences with him.

I don’t know what to say...

Neil was a great guy to talk to the few times we spoke over the phone.

He was such a 2T fanatic...I can’t believe he’s gone...I’m completely shocked right now.

Just an FYI there is a nice little write up on a Neil Pritchard tribute Trx250r hybrid build in the August 2020 issue of Dirt Wheels over the bars section.

Thanks for the heads up Joe. I'm still running one of his many port jobs. I still think about the MAN!
