Hi everyone,  unfortunately Al Mason has passed away this afternoon.  He made no secret of his battle with mental illness, sadly taking his own life. 
I'm in shock at the moment.
Rest on peace Al we will all miss you.

I chose not to share this on Facebook.

Als always been up and down, but that's way too far down. Bugger!

He loved his bikes and wearing us out on his Clubman rides.

RIP Al

Thanks Wade for passing on the sad news to the wider AMTRA community . My brother often referred to many of you guys as his AMTRA family. I know that there are many AMTRA people that were very close to Al and his family thank you all for your kind words and support not only during this difficult time but also over the many years that Al has battled with mental illness. Best regards To you all. Thanks Brian Mason
