You either wear gloves when you ride or you don't. There's no mix. If you're used to riding with them, you'll miss them if you did not pack them in your bag on the way to the riding session.

A double page spread with Luke Parslow tells you his story about getting to the USA and trying to stay there. BMX PLUS! brings How-to's. This time the Downside Footplant and a 540 on a wedge. Bikes that got tested were the Free Agent Hellcat and the Intense Clutch.
