Great read. I met the larger than life Charlie at Brockwell Park many years ago, 19 July 2003 actually, when the Brixton BMX Club was getting back on its feet under Kenny Flloyd's guidance. Here he is in this picture showing off his six-pack with his hands on the heads of my sons Matt #428 and James #462. I offered him a chance to ride my cruiser but he declined it and said that he'd only make a return to racing if he got a top sponsor on board. Really nice guy. Humps

I've added this other picture as it includes some current riders who are hitting the big time in BMX racing. And there's another legend in there too.

that 360 jump in the picture was just over 37 foot wide, the way I had to put the picture together doesn't do it justice

steve

that was a great read for sure, but i was at that race in france when charlie 360d those doubles, no way were they 37 feet, more like 22ft.

Not many racers impressed me bitd but Andy ruffell and charlie Reynolds were awesome. I met Charlie a few times and he was super cool as you would expect. Andy and Charlie were 360ing the wooden jumps at the Olympia at full speed and super smooth.
