Steve Newell
It is with sadness that I have to report that Steve passed away on Saturday,after a long battle against ill health,which he fought hard against for many years .He loved scootering and his contribution to the Chester scene was great. In the early 70s ,along with his mate Jezza Holden they formed the first Cloud 9 scooter club ,in Chester. Again in 2002 he founded and ran the Chester Centurions S.C. only finishing with it when his health started to give out .He was a very well known face at all the rallies ,rideouts and charity runs and raised a lot of charity money through his own efforts .He will be sadly missed by many who knew him .Scootering has definitely lost one of its well known characters.Thanks,once again,Steve for getting us all together ,your lasting legacy will be that hopefully the old city walls of Chester will ring to the sound of old Italian two stroke motors for many years to come .Our condolences naturally go to Sharon and familyat this sad time . Goodbye Steve. Dave.
Christmas Present Run
Sunday the 2nd is the Christmas present run to the Countess Hospital.
Because it's great fun I want to come on it, I am opening Supertune 9-11am ( instead of usual Sunday 12-2pm.)
If anyone wants to use the shop as a meeting point before going down to Clubbies and then Bill Smiths, tea and coffee can be supplied!
Cheers, Pete.

news of Steve Newell
Many of our Members , who previously belonged to the Chester Centurions, will know our scooter buddy from Northwich, Trevor Howard. He rang me to tell me that Steves health has deteriorated badly despite having spent the last three months in the Countess Hospital,and he is now at home again .Iam sure all our members would like to thank Steve for starting the Centurions and bringing a like minded group of scooterists together . Without all his efforts at the start there would not be a club today, thanks Steve . Dave .
