Ride UK just released a "Sneak Peek" of the cover of their next issue. Paul Ryan gets it doing a curved wallride to whip. Eisa balanced on the bin to get the shot. #197 has a bunch of articles and of course some road trips were involved. The Eclat crew went to Alicante. Paul Ryan went to the new BMX destiny called Malaga and the Federal crew went to Madrid. Escaping the bad weather needs to be done and it doesn't have to be California. RIDE UK catches up with Ruben Alcantara (in Malaga) and Bruno Hoffmann (in Madrid). Kris Fox answers some questions in the Flat Out article and The Junkyard gets explained. England has so many indoor parks these days that it was time to look into them a bit more. Park's Not Dead is the article that shows the transitions of the UK. Joe Embrey gets an interview and that wraps up the specials of #197. The regulars are always there so be ready for the news, the products, the questions, info, contents page, etc with fresh new photos.
Two of the all time greatest BMX-ers do an over-under if they were Brian Blyther and Ron Wilkerson. To add to the excitement, they added some flames to make Vincent Perraud's job tough getting his camera right in there to get the shot. Welcome to the March/April issue. Here's the contents list.

Dirt riders will be stoked on the cover which features TJ Ellis who just got bumped up the the Vans Pro team. Gary Young explains a trick that you can use at the trails as well, the One-Handed Flattie. More dirt related articles in the April issue with Paul Kintner and Groundchuck talking about trail riding in the 1990-s. If you want to swap a brake cable without any tools in two minutes, BMX Plus! has you covered. The mag brings tips and loads of new products. If you're looking for a new ride for the trails, the Dirt Riders' Buyers guide will lead you in the right direction. We haven't seen Chad de Groot ride trails much but I'm sure he can. He's got a Pro Column in Plus! which could get interesting because he's been
