It's been quite in review land. It's not that we have not received the magazines or DVD, it's just that we have had no time to check them out.
Twenty BMX magazine seems to come out on a regular basis. The September issue is another good issue. The mix with BMX racing and Freestyle might not be your thing but maybe you can give it a try. You can either learn something from racing or as a racer, you can pick up some tricks from the freestyle dudes.
The cover has racing on it. This might be risky business but it shows the Twenty people have got balls. The big format gives you bigger pictures, even the photos in the Pump (news) section show up rather big. There's and article about the MacNeil West Coast Tour, a Cristian Becerine interview, a report about the Dew Tour round in Louisville. If you want to know what the future holds for Mike Lundy, turn to page 50, that's where the interview starts. Do you know what BMX Purgatory is? Don't worry, I didn't know either. More on this on P. 62. 63 and 64. There's a TD how-to, a Torey Kish I.D., Jason Carnes is putting in his Two Cents and twenty also shows you how to cut your stock bars and put the grips back on. There's a bunch of products featured in the Showcase/Inventory part and those Recon photo's are always funny. Some DVD reviews (LD/Props) and a Contrast last page thingy with Muth and Napolitan wrap up the September issue. Go check it out.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
