FATBMX 2012 REVIEW: DIRT NIGHT SESSION HEUSDEN. It gets dark early in the fall/winter over in the Netherlands. At 5pm it's too dark to see a thing. If you work till 17:00hrs that means you're stuck or you must have an indoor place near you where you can ride after work. Trail riders usually aren't that lucky because let's be honest, there aren't many dirt spots that have enough lights to ride at night. It was time for an experiment. How many lights would you need to make a dirt spot bright enough so you can ride? Dimitris Araouzos took on the challenge and rented an generator for his trails in Heusden. He bought some lights and called all his friends to bring the big beamers. We showed up a little early to get at least some attempts in to make it through the pack at daylight. When it got nearly dark the lights were tested. It was obvious that more lights were needed. The run up was still pitch dark and if you weren't a local, you had a serious problem. But the trails in Heusden looked like they had received a Christmas decoration.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
