Earlier this week Transworld BMX got bought by Grind Media. What that exactly means to the BMX book isn't very clear at the moment but sometimes change is good and let's hope that goes for the current staff of the BMX mag. RIDEBMX is the only BMX mag in Grind Media's portfolio so a merge isn't necessary. Expect RIDE to come out with the best possible mag in the time to come. Here's what's inside their latest edition:

Departments

-First Words: From 25 years of handrails to 30 years of dirt, Editor In Chief, Keith Mulligan links it all together.

-Start: Reed Stark handles an insane looking setup during a sneaky night mission.

-Up Front: Sponsor Block, Injured List, and Fine Print… you can spend a lot of time scouring the internet, or find it all right here.

-Pro Q&A: Mark Mulville
A really fun guy to be around, an amazing dirt jumper, and pretty darn good at answering your questions as well.

-Products: All the info you need on 14 new products.

-Soft Goods: We’ve got you covered from head to toe with new gear from Primo, S&M, Odyssey, Fit, etnies, Volume, Kink, Demolition, and The Shadow Conspiracy.

-Diversions: Something to read with Mike Daily’s Aggro Rag book and stuff to watch with Kink’s Squash It and Subrosa’s Get Used To It.

-Focus: Lahsaan Kobza, Raul Ruiz, Alex Magallan, Jared Washington, and Pat Laughlin all deserve photo contingency.

-Bio: Dan Pederson
AKA “Danimal”, this Albuquerque, New Mexico, native shreds and you need to know about him.

-Finish: Bruno Hoffman
We all know that he’s from Germany, he can do just about anything on a bike, and that his hat won’t stay on his head while filming, but what you didn’t know…

Features:

-25 Years Of Handrails
Starting from Mat Hoffman’s first double peg down a rail in 1988 and working forward, we charted to evolution and trick progression of tricks done on rails down steps. Beginning with some more in-depth stories from the earlier years and then slimming it down to a timeline, this year by year breakdown is pretty insane.

-Timmy Theus Interview
Timmy has been making waves in the streets for a minute and now it’s time we all get to see and read what he’s all about.

-Dirt Art
After an intro written from dirt’s Godfather himself, Timmy “Fuzzy” Hall, it’s all big and beautiful photos of dudes roasting and ripping through the woods.

-MacNeil In Mexico
MacNeil’s Sam Lowe, Greg Flag, and Taylor Elvy experience the real and fake side of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
