Reading books gets a lot more exciting when the story is of interest. More and more BMX books are hitting the market so at FATBMX we decided to contact a few of the people behind them. To start it off we got in touch with Olympic BMX Park gold medalist Logan Martin who has a book coming out about his road to the gold.
Title of the book: Logan Martin - Journey to gold
Author: Scott Gullan
Date published: 18 October 2022
Pages: 208
How long was the thinking process before you decided to get to work on the book?
Logan Martin: The publishing company ‘Penguin Random House’ reached out not long after the Olympics to see if I was keen to do an autobiography. It was sort of a no brainer for me, I believe I had a cool enough story up until this point for it to be told in a book.
How was the process working with an author on the book?
Logan Martin: Scott flew up to the Gold Coast for a few days and we pretty much caught up 4 days
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
