Steve P:
There must be someone who knows exactly what Glynn is up to these days :-\
Holmetech:
Take it nobodys telling me the rumours?? ???
theRuler:
didnt glyn spell his name with one n?
Brownie:
Glynn was one of the older lads who would tear up the Black Lion Skatepark when I was just a pup. He was head and shoulders above everyone else there - apart from a lad I also remember who we used to call Lumo. He jumped over the fence from the main bowl - or Resie - as we would call it. But that's another story.
Anyway, Glynn - who worked at Geoff Wyles Cycles - was getting big air back at a time when he had no real right to. I also once saw him jump out of the blue bowl - which was vertical and had thick coping - and 360. He was a bit arrogant back then but that was no real surprise. The rest of us could just about manage a cross up. Jeeze, the older lads would let us ride their bikes for a go on theirs - and then nick our dust caps. Happy dayz!
:rant:
By the sounds of you guys in the know, he's riding solo at HMP right now. I'd be intrigued to know what he did and I guess it's pretty bad seeing's no one is prepared to post. I'm sure Glynn was not as good as we all thought he was. People reading this were probably just as good BITD but for this part of Kent, he was easily the top man. You guys will know more but I can remember him laying it flat a good six feet out of the top of the aforementioned Blue Bowl. Us pups were impressed that's for sure! Cheers, JB
RADHAB:
To be fair to Glyn, and i hope they are just rumours, maybe someone perhaps should do some proper homework and find out whats really happened to Glyn......It would be a shame if the rumours are true. I think we should leave it there.
