Title: RIP Paul Sample
Post by: KingOrry on February 01, 2026, 12:30:14

Sad to hear the ad-Minister of Ogri-culture, cartoonist Paul Sample passed away Jan 27th.
Like many of a certain age, the Ogri cartoons epitomised all I wanted to be as a motorcycle rider, and never mind any new bike road tests, it was always the back of Bike magazine and the latest Ogri I’d flick to first.
He had a brilliant eye and seemed to share the same ‘soul’ as the riders of the day.
RIP
