Fids is one of the bigger UK names from 90s BMX to present day. He’s pretty much done it all.
This is an interview from 2013 that was made for John Paul Rogers and Empire BMX's now-defunct Collateral Media Site that we're reposting in memory of our friend Mark "FIDS" Findlay who passed away on December 8, 2024 after a short battle with cancer.
Fids is a lifelong friend of ours here at FATBMX. From riding for S&M to helping build ramps for our annual Boyley Jam, he truly embodies what it means to be a diehard BMXer. Recently, Fids was diagnosed with cancer, but for those who know him, he's not letting that slow him down - he's raising those middle fingers high!

Fids has always ripped on BMX and skate sides of things, so we laced him up with a new signature pool deck.
A brief insight to the rich history of BMX in Hastings England. First shown in the build-up of the SourceBMX Battle of Hastings live stream program. Big thanks to Mark Richards for putting this together.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
