In the years I worked for GT Bicycles (1996 - 2001) the international product presentation was always a good time. New products to show, bicycle lovers around, drinks and food aplenty, and media present to take photos of the new products. FATBMX had to miss the 2018 GT product presentation in Nevada but luckily enough we got sent the photos of the special night. Gary Turner (the GT in GT) showed up for it as did trial guru Hans "no way" Rey, England's Dale Holmes (DHR), Box Components' Toby Henderson, GT factory riders, TM Steve Spencer and product manager Ben Ward who explained the new GT BMX Racing product to all listening. GT has been good in creating a family and it's great to see them backing BMX year after year.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
