I know my Blog looks a little disorganized, just bare with me as I have a lot to share with you. I'm trying to go back from 2007 when I first had my amputation, right up to the present and  beyond. So there will be a mixture of pictures,video's,stories and hopefully other stuff you find interesting. It won't be all bikes, even though that plays a huge part in my life. Anyhoo hope you enjoy my Blog.


Cheers Glenn

Mr Hinks

HuH!!!!

Just told Mr Hinks a joke, a man goes to the zoo, it only had one animal it was a dog, it was a Shitzu :D

Here's one of my best m8's,Mr Hinks my English Bull Terrier

Me and wor Hinks. I met up with him when Ern had him out for a walk down Beamish woods, so took a photo opportunity.

A few pic's of my bikes

My NS Analog single speed, this bike is so much fun,planning a route and zig zagging around town, reminds me of my BMX days :)
My newest acquisition a Sandman Hoggar Ti. I am an ambassador for Sandman Bikes and lucky enough to have the first one here in the UK,. Watch this space as I'll be updating with more new pictures of me and my Sandman's adventures.
This was my Propain Rage. I sold her  to help fund my new bike, my Sandman Hoggar Ti. Was really sad to see her go,she was a cracking ride :)
Here's my Ibis Mojo SL when she was new way back in 2007. I still have her, she's a bit rough round the edges but still a great ride :)

Here I am meeting my hero Mr Brian Bartlett at Hampden Park Interntional Football Stadium

WoW not often you get to meet your hero :)


I hooked up with Brian the designer of the Bartlett Tendon up at Hampden Park. I can't thank Pace Rehab and Strathclyde University enough for helping to gett Brian over here to demonstrate his knee. Things have really moved on and I'm now very honoured and privileged to be sponsored by the man himself Brian Bartlett.

Me alongside Jamie Gillespie of Pace Rehabilitation and Ollie Smith of Ossur

My early riding days, here I am down at Pace Rehab in Chesham with Jamie & Ollie. I was trying out a riding specific socket designed by Jamie and also had the opportunity to test out a pre-launch liner which is now in production ( the Ossur X5 Seal in.) www.pacerehab.com

Stuck in the Mud

A quick clip of me rolling off whilst on my way home. I thought the council had gravelled the whole trail. My fault for not checking it out and trying to land on the thin concrete slabs that had been put there as a path through the mud, takes me ages to hop out of the mud and get going again lol

On the rocks at St Mary's beach
