Sometimes team changes are big news. So big that the TM's are actually hitting us up with the news. Jerry Badders sent over this photo of Dakota Roche with the news that he had left Lotek. Why would Badders send that if he wouldn't be on the Vans team now. Exactly, he is. The photo on the right is supposedly a secret photo, but Vans have got a video planned with Dakota as an introduction to the Vans team. Not sure how long that will take but you can bet you'll find that back on FATBMX as well. Maybe even "first" if we're not digging at the local trails like today when the news comes in.
So to wrap this post up:
Dakota Roche off Lotek. On Vans.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
