1948-2023

Well-known North West sales agent, Liverpudlian Peter Gidman, has died. He was 75. Peter spent 36 years in the motorcycle retail and wholesale trades before his retirement at the end of May 2012.

Peter had many roles in the trade, which earned him a wide circle of friends, right from his early days as sales manager at Cundles, the big Liverpool dealer of the time. There then followed a short period with Tomos mopeds before managing sales for Belstaff in the North West. He later joined Phoenix Distribution, taking Metzeler tyres, Arai helmets, Belstaff, and then Yoshimura exhausts and Fieldsheer clothing, under his wing. After that, he became the northern dealer development manager for Givi UK.

His funeral was held on 31 March at St Helen’s crematorium.
