When a year starts it's hard to predict what will happen. Who will be on top form, who will get injured? When is bringing the new tricks and who will retire? 2015 is almost over and even when the BMX business isn't rather booming, still a whole lot happened this year.

The IBMXFF also has a few things in the works so 2016 should be a busy one. But it's important the jams are happening and riders ride for the fun of it. The joy it gives to learn a new trick.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
