I watched him many times riding my nearest skate park in Gillingham BITD.

Glyn was wild, fearless and TOTALLY RAD !!!  :o

Mr Rusty:
Watched Glyn many a time in the small bowl at Gillingham getting unbelievable airs.

Hey Minihaha - sure I must know you.  Mote Park bomb hole circa 1983 spent most evenings there - also the boat house jump.

Hi ya Chris,

Yeah, I remember the Blue Bowl and the Snake's Head at Gillingham Skate Park and Glyn certainly knew how to use them for huge, huge air  :o

Circa 1983. Oh Yes. I was there most of the time with Letch, Millsy, Macky T, Rappo and loads more. Some mighty fine memories there mate

WOW!!! The boat house jump. Man that was a cool jump with a pretty awkward tree if you jumped too far. Rode straight into that a few times. Ouch

Do you remember that sad excuse of a skate park the Maidstone Borough built.  I can remember seeing it for the very first time. Apparently, it cost thousands to build BITD from what appeared to be old, recycled school gym mats. They were having a laugh  ;D

I am curious now. I knew one or two riders named Chris back then. I won't mention any surnames yet but I have an idea who you are. What did you ride then and do you still live locally?

If we do know each other it would be great to get back in touch

TTFN  ;)

Mr Rusty:
You got PM

tricknuts:
 Istill rememebr him doing no footer front hops on BMX beat. Has anyone else ever managed to do such a thing. Completely impossible.

Yeah, wouldn't suprise me, if poor old Glyn ended up in the nick. never heard any rumours, so I'll only have to guess..
