Do you remember the moment that you decided to start collecting BMX memorabilia?
Donnie Platt: I’ve always been into old school bikes. I always kept them around even as I got new bikes. I decided I wanted to start racing again in 2005 and decided to fund it by selling off a bunch of my old school parts. That was when I realized that there was a real scene there. I wasn’t the only one that liked that stuff. I sold off a bunch of stuff (including the Boss cruiser I’d had since 1992 which I tried to buy

The 2021 National Park Championship took place at Rampfest in Melbourne, Australia. With the high level of riders in the country it was going to be a heavy comp to make it on the podium in the Men class. Natalya Diehm added another title to her C.V. on a borrowed bike and borrowed helmet. She had just been cleared from a broken hand on Thursday before the comp after she had already flown in. After several classes rode their National Champs, the Elite Men final is when the roof came off. In the end the results looked like this:
Elite Men:
1 MARTIN Logan AUS 200 UCI points
2 LOUPOS Brandon AUS 160
3 MATTHEWS Joshua AUS 130
4 DOVE Josh AUS 110
5 WATTS Jason AUS 90
6 GIBSON Samuel AUS 70
7 TOOHEY Jaie AUS 50
The need for BMX comps is there but in these times it's still challenging to do it under safe conditions. The BMX Triple Challenge series had its most recent stop at the Supercross race in Arlington, Texas. As in the past years a change to a Street type contest was held. A strong field of riders made it out to Arlington for the event and here's how the top 3 ended up and who won Best Trick.

Name: Brad Nash
Hometown: Winchester, England
Started riding BMX in: 1983
Number of bikes in the collection: Currently 6
What was the first collectable bike that started it all for you?
Brad Nash: In early 2000’s I got my hands on an '83 Mongoose Californian and that was it...
Do you have a closer feeling to bikes you did own back in the day or badly wanted when you were racing BMX?
Brad Nash: Badly wanted is more like it. I had a rubbish BMX as a kid. Mum swears it was an American import but I think she meant from Halfords. I never raced BMX. We did have a mud track locally that kids
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
