I want to do the same with Jonass! I need to keep interviews with them going, no matter what.

That would be awesome!

Can we get a Coldenhoff interview 🤔

I think my 9-year-old  has a better chance of getting an interview with Glenn than Lewis does Laughing

Not sure of a bio, but surely Lewis's previous involvement in MX / journalism says a hell of alot.

One thing I can say, is that I raced at the sametime as his father, often the same regions and clubs; absolutely superb rider his Dad was.... he was as fast as you like.

Could run with the very best guys here in the nationals in the youth classes and that was no mean feat.

Still remember those days, his Dad was super fast and can understand how Lewis is now so involved in Mx, credit to him and his super MX family.

Lewis aint no stranger to MX, he and his family been involved for years!

So look forward to Lewis's input to vital.Smile

That's really, really cool to read. Thank you!

Yea- some great memories of those days and many of the fast riders back then, as well as the events, tracks and clubs- a while back now but I can remember alot of it like yesterday!

How the sport has sort of 'changed' from those times in a way, looking back, its interesting to compare the older days to the present.Smile

Man this place has been stepping it up a notch or two in recent times.

Good work.

Hey Lewis, my memory is working overtime remembering those days in the 1980's when your Dad was hammering it....Smile

Obviously you were not born at the time but I am trying to recall some of the riders he banged bars with, am I correct in thinking that your Dad and James Marsh (who became a very good 500GP rider) had some good battles back then when they were young? Seem to think they did but maybe my memory struggles?

Also possibly remember he battled with Jason Morris, who was British National ACU 80cc champ in '81 I think? Do you know if my dates and the riders are wrong ? - also possibly your Dad battled with Warren Edwards, whom also was a super rider, going onto GP's and also he was most famous for leading Rick Johnson in one of the early British Supercrosses events of the 1980's. Warren was very quick on his day.

There were more riders also who were damn fast- just trying to work out the years and whom the very fast guys were, your Dad being one of them.Smile

Just watched Lewis on RDL.  EXCELLENT interaction with JB & AC!   He is articulate and super knowledgeable on all things MXGP which brings a perspective we don’t get a lot of here in the USA routinely and also very in tune with SX and MX.   Great addition to the Vital MX staff and to get to know him a bit better with this segment today.

Down voters, WTF!!

Lewis is one of best of the current MX media guys, if not of all time. He was a big loss to MXGP and that segment on RDL proved it.

Inundated with moto content these days. That's a good thing.

Can't quite catch it all. But if LP is part of the deal, it's must watch/listen for me.

Greatly appreciated what he brought to MXGP coverage, and that much more so for his presence on US scene. 

Well done lad. Always.

Well, we hear the love life isn’t going well so there’s still some comfort here. 

I’m sure things will turn around in that department soon !  

Keep it up Big Lew. 🫣

You’re the best Lew, thanks for always bringing humor as well as thoughtful insight to your content. You’re more than just your content, but the post race reviews and MXGP review shows are my jam and that’s largely in lieu of you Lew.
