6 weeks ago I was in doubt of even hopping on the plane to the USA, but I flew over on a hope that my constant back pain would fix itself and could return to action. After skipping the first race in Nashville I went on to place 5th and pick up a Holeshot award in Salt Lake. From there I went on to land myself on my first elite podium with a 3rd and another Holeshot award in Rockford.Last weekend we were at our final stop in South Park, Pittsburgh. I didn't drop a lap all weekend, winning day one and picking up my first Elite win.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
