Living in a van, waking up at a new skatepark every day. Sounds like a dream. Teresa Fernández-Miranda has been living this life for a while now. Time to check in with her to see what life on the road is all about.
Community & Friends
BMX is such a tight community. How often do you link up with friends on the road?
Teresa Fernández-Miranda: One of the best things about living in the van is that I can visit all my friends who are spread out across the country. They always make time to spend a few days riding and having a good time together.
Chasing Skateparks
Spain (and Europe) has some insane parks. What are some of your favorite skateparks you’ve been able to visit because you live on the road?
Teresa Fernández-Miranda: For me, the best parks in Spain are Skatepark Rubén Alcántara, Skatepark Villaverde, Skatepark de Navia, and Skatepark de Trapagaran. Those are the ones where I enjoy riding the most in Spain.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
