The Open Dutch BMX Dirt championships took place in Helmond yesterday. It wasn't the usual 4 jumps in a straight row that was offered to the riders. The locals had made a challenging course for the participating riders and dirt fans. Making it through the rollercoaster line was a challenge for most, but there were other lines to take in case you didn't feel comfy on the big line and wanted to do your tricks and whips somewhere else. The sun was out all day, the music was blasting, people were riding which resulted in happy faces. 
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
