Backgren Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 (edited) Just to clarify, it's Gurra you see in the Oat Pea video, Robert was filming it. Rob always edited the best videos, we need to get them online again. Edited July 6, 2008 by Backgren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pashley26 Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 I've only just been able to comment on this. I'm so glad everybody's remembering all the great things that Rob was involved in. It brings happiness out of something that could only be described as tragic. Condolences to the family, and RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) Click Look at all those videos he uploaded What a feast for the oldschool lovers!

Huge loss for the trials scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny Jones Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Only just seen this, not sure how I missed it! I talked to Janson on MSN a few times, complete legend of a man! Rest in peace man And yeah, it all seems quite odd what is going on at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Bigman sent me a text about this when I was somewhere in Holland driving to Cologne, and it was pretty hard to take in. Meeting Janson and Co. down in Bristol all those years ago was one of the highlights of my time riding trials, he was such a sound guy. R.I.P. dude...

R.I.P. dude... looking at the "potence" video he's uploaded with clips from the ride we had in bristol (and all the other videos) hurts, but also reminds you all the awesome moments with Robert. it's still unreal having lost him and thinking that we won't ever be able to do all those things again...

Backgren Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I attended the funeral today. It was of course very sad, saying goodbye to a friend, but everything was very much how Rob would have liked it, with his favourite music, his bike and the drum set and a picture of him in one of his best and happiest moments. The photo was from an annual "parade" his uni arranges, with lots of funny cars and trucks they've designed and built, Rob was driving a motorized canoe on the main street of Gothenburg. Anyways, the ceremony today was all about remembering all the fun moments with Rob and what a wonderful person he was, which won't be hard thanks to all the traces he's left, just think of all the videos. A true legend. I miss him a lot.Ride in Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A true legend. I miss him a lot.Ride in PeaceI think that was a brilliant idea - saying goodbye to him in a positive way which surely he would have wanted instead of doing the usual church thing. I'm sure it's made his family, you and all his mates feel just a little bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al_Fel Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 I noticed it was his birthday earlier today I considered starting a thread saying "happy birthday" but then decided it wouldn't really be in good taste.Anyway Happy Birthday to the old school video God.

Backgren Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Good to here i went well, how did they include his bike? I expect there was a lot of people showing up They just had the bike, helmet and drumset on the podium. His parents donated the bike to the trials club here, who will keep it for beginners to try on. One of the absolutely nicest bikes ever. This way we hope to give as many people as possible some "happiness" and the interest in trials, helping the scene to live on. It will always remind me and everyone else who knew Rob about him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
