When I first moved to the Bay Area I never missed the Saturday morning session at the Vans park ever. Each time I was riding the same guy would always be there with me and kids would talk in front of me in line of how he was hooked up and never had to pay to ride there. While standing in line one day waiting for some bladers to vacate the park so we could start riding I saw the same guy at the front of the line just amped up to ride. With a huge smile on his face he yelled across the park: "Ok motherfuckers! Its over! hahaha". He likes to skid and do fufanus, his drivers license reads "Nick Valencia" but most people call him "Nick Dawg"... You have been working on Exodus...what is that?
Nick: Exodus is my little side project that I wanted to do for a while and finally did some work with this past year or so. I've always worked with sponsors on refining parts and things like that, so it was pretty natural to want total control over some design stuff.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
