Dan is aways filming something but right now he's dealing with some east coast weather. So here's a IG comp from the sunny days earlier this year.
Visited Dez at his home spot in Haarlem, Netherlands to ride for a week. So we filmed this quick edit! Enjoy!
It's windy and it's raining, but the show must go on. You're on that 8 meter high starting hill with 7 nervous girls next to you. You know you need to jump that first jump to make a chance to transfer to the next round. Things can get sketchy sometimes that's why it's good to pad up.

Canadians, just like Australians, are some tough mofo's. Actually most BMX SX racers are tough, but what do they have hidden under their jersey and race pants? These New Year, New Gear interviews on FATBMX give you an idea what the pros think about their racing kit, protection gear and helmet. Safety first!

“Fed Up with The Bullshit – Act Like You Know Crew’s 4th full-length video. Three solid years of dedication from the usual cast, plus a few new soldiers we’ve handed the torch down to. No sponsors, no travel budgets, no ‘practicing’ – just straight riding from the bottomless pits of East Coast and Midwest cities." - alykcru.com DIG hosted an exclusive online premiere of ALYK's 'Fed Up With The Bullshit' DVD just shy of a month ago. After the 48 hour viewing period a limited run of 100 hard copies were made available on the ALYK online store. The copies sold out quick, so thankfully for those who missed out we've got it back online now. Be on the lookout for more exclusive content from the crew to pop up on the site every Wednesday for the next several weeks. Also don't forget to snag some of the fresh gear the crew just dropped.
Dirt Bros // Bully Slow Ride // 1990 (Vic Murphy,Brad Blanchard,& Ronnie Farmer) by Snakebite BMX
Although the Bully video did not live up to the hype that the company was generating at the time it still was packed with an all star line up. It really feels like they filmed the whole video in a weekend. Even though the video turned out bad there is still a few gems you can find in this. The Dirt Bros. were at the peak of their popularity and nothing really looked cooler than these guys shredding SD on the 2 tone Bully's.
As the decade of Vert dominance of the 80's rolled to an end Jon Byers was boosting as the vert ramps were disappearing and being chopped down to mini ramps. Jon's pump on ramp is magic and i'm always bummed we didn't get to see more footage of him.
RL's part is super short and the highlights are him doing a table over one of the jumps at the Mission Hills trails and him talking to Scott Breithaupt while he is sitting in the street. Pretty weird.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
