The sport of BMX is often seen as a gateway into cycling, with many of today's road and mountain bike legends beginning their path on small wheels. We sent GCN's James Lowsley-Williams and GMBN's Blake Samson to ride with some athletes who chose to stay on that path, with an aim to find out just what it takes to turn dirt, into gold.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
