Friends, family, work mates and cyclists attended the service for Peter Clarkson at the Marina Fisherman’s Memorial on Tuesday the 8th March.
Peter was a diver from the age of 15 and a conservationist and worldwide specialist on shells. He was also an avid cyclist. He was often seen of the Proper Bay road always with a huge grin on his face.
There will be a memorial ride for Peter Clarkson on 3rd April. Club members are encouraged to participate if they feel they are able.
There are several opportunities to join in at;
1. 8 am at Del Giorno's to ride to Coffin Bay in our own group.
2. Regroup of all the respective cycle groups will be at Beachcomber Cafe at 10am at Coffin Bay,
We will cycle as a group to Avoid Bay and probably arrive at midday.
We will have some funny face biscuits and orange juice there,(and I think if you have sandals for cycling, this would be a great time to wear them!) Peter only ever used sandals - Shimano preferably!
We will go back to somewhere, - maybe the Hotel at Coffin Bay to have some lunch if you feel inclined. It would be a great outing and opportunity to say a real farewell!

What a great bloke he was I knew him when I first went to the Soloman Islands tuna spotting in 1988. Peter was then visiting his missionary parents. Peter was then diving for shells I met him a few times while on diving trips out of Honiara. Then I found out he was a regular visitor to our home town Port Lincoln. RIP Peter.
