Hell's Angels bikers formed a guard of honour as Great Train
Robber is laid to rest two weeks after his death at
the age of 84.GREAT Train Robber Ronnie Biggs, whose main crime was to have spent much of his life cocking a snook at the British authorities was given an appropriate send off on Friday (3.01.14)
When he was last seen in public, at the funeral of robbery mastermind Bruce Reynolds, Biggs stuck two fingers up at journalists.
Today, as the hearse carrying his coffin passed through the streets of north
London, a white floral wreath in the shape of a two-fingered salute was visible
alongside a Union flag and the flag of Brazil, the country where he spent many
years as a fugitive from British justice.Well-wishers gathered in the rain to watch the hearse depart. The coffin was surrounded by floral tributes and messages, and adorned with a red ribbon which read "Ronnie".
The funeral cortege, with a guard of honour formed by 13 Hell's Angels bikers, left the home of Biggs' son Michael and daughter-in-law Veronica in Barnet, north London, ahead of the service at Golders Green Crematorium, north London.
