End of an era for me, one that started almost 60 years ago. And honestly, good riddance
The patch removed is for an antique brand of British motorcycle. I lived with one for a decade as a child, literally the bike stored in whatever bedroom I had. It was promised to me by my estranged father, who I cut from my life when he went insane in the 80s following his wife's death, my step mother. She sewed that patch on my jacket in about '82, died in '86. I have not worn it much since then. But now, I will.
