On behalf of the family of George and Doris Gardiner I offer our condolences on the death of Daniel (Barney). I met him for the first time last year at George's funeral in Waihi. He was the groomsman at George and Doris' wedding and it was good for him to come down to the funeral. Unfortunately I did not have time to talk much with him particularly over our shared interest in cycling.

A great guy and cyclist. Known him for 70 odd years. From Waihi, and a real mate of old Doug. Won the Round the Mountain race as youngster, and helped us win round Taupo.
RIP Barney.
