John epitomized the term "team player". For John personal achievements were never as important as team results. He sacrificed individual results on many an occasion chasing down breaks, tireless blocking efforts, or leading out a teammate, that brought John satisfaction. Nevertheless, he often had his own finishes in the top ten. Unfortunately, a severe back problem stopped John from competitive racing just before he was scheduled to move up to the Master 45 group, where much success was guaranteed. John Bradley truly earned his place in the NEMRT Hall of Fame.
