Anyone remember Glynn Lewis?

I must be local to you then Brownie . . . that's if you still live near the Black Lion complex :)
I was always over Gillingham Skate Park at weekends and like you say, Glynn certainly new how to ride there and always great to watch
I was away from the BMX scene for a few years and couldn't believe it when I discovered the site had been filled to make way for a leisure centre . . :( . . . any idea what year this happened ?

I'm with you on that too RADHAB :-X

I was Glyn Lewis' teammate on Ammaco...... He was rad as fook; no-one rode that bowl at Gillingham like him. I saw him riding at Leigh-on-Sea skatepark back in about '94-95ish but didn't immediately recognise him..... he never was the prettiest picture.... ;D
He then turned up at Rom in the late 90's, on a DP. I took him aside to ask him about rumours I had heard, he went on to tell me he had been in prison more than once, and had indeed lead a violent life. He denied to me that his convictions were for anything other than violence, something I would very much like to believe, as I'm sure most of you would too.
Anyways, we had a good session at Rom that day and he promised he would come riding a little more, but sadly I've not seen him since.
I haven't heard anything more from him/about him since then.

Prolly, can I have my dice dustcaps back please if it's you who nicked them! lol
I live on Sheppey at the time and me and my mates would travel up by train getting in all sorts of bother before arriving at the Black Lion before 9am each Saturday. Great park. I couldn't believe it when they filled it in either. Really short-sighted of the local council. Shoot the lot of 'em! :2gunsfiring_v1:
