After Madera fell apart in 2020 I assumed that this whole video would never be on the internet in its entirety. I decided to say screw it and post the whole thing. One of the songs from Elstran's part needed to me muted to fit the copyright on YouTube so ignore that if you can. This was my first full length video I ever had the pleasure of creating and I am proud of it.

We asked three leading motocross athletes how BMX has helped them when they made the transition to riding dirt bikes. See what they had to say:
Eli Tomac
FATBMX: Did you ever race BMX?
Eli Tomac: My racing started with bicycles and that was riding BMX tracks, it was the first thing I did. I got on a bicycle and raced BMX probably till I was 7 or 8 years old at the local tracks and then after that I went full motocross but yeah it was part of my life in the beginning.
FATBMX: Do you use something you learnt from BMX for your motocross riding?
Eli: I think the crossover is excellent, just for learning balance, balance is huge in the control of your bike.
FATBMX: Do you think BMX is a good school for motocross?
Eli: Oh yeah, totally! I mean, especially in the Supercross environment it's very similar, well, it's both, it's bike control right, knowing how to pinch the bike, I think there's a lot of similarity between BMX and Motocross.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
