It's appreciated when magazines go out of their way to shoot a covershot. This one was taken by Walter Pieringer and is more than just a photo of a guy jumping a bike. It's Hoffman Bikes rider Ben Hennon doing a superman over his boss Mat Hoffman himself doing a burnout in his 1976 Lincoln Continental with a ramp attached to it. The move has left some black marks on Mat's driveway but the story behind that is well worth it. Time to frame that photo and put it on your wall. Issue 158 (!) of RIDE UK will have the following articles:
-BSD in Toulouse, France
-14 bikes tested: complete nightmare
-Tubeless in BMX?
-Alex Coleborn one year on
-Nathan Williams poster
-Pedal To the Metal Hoffman story
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
