"Ty Recently came out to Long Beach to ride and film with the boys for a few weeks. Along the way he encountered a few unfortunate speed bumps and sadly got his bike stolen the first week he was here. After about two weeks with no bike the homies were able to piece him together a new one! Someone even tried to rob him at gunpoint for the new bike but Ty wasn't having it and was able to make a clean escape."
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
