BMX Stephan Götz – IN THE STREETS OF BERLIN Pt2 by Christian Berger. Stephan is one of the nicest guys in the BMX scene. Berlin is lucky that he moved here in 2015. We filmed this two-part-series from February until November 2016. In May at the Highway to Hill Contest Stephan went through a life threatening injury. His spleen was taken out in an emergency operation and our project was interrupted for about 2 months. But Stephan is back stronger and more motivated than ever!

This was such aniconic period for GT that just so many people relate to - and to get WD40on board (one of the main sponsors in-period) as well, was the icing on thecake and with their new WD40 bike line the timing was perfect”.
A few sponsors are still to be announced, but we have the support of:CSG/GT Bicycles, Box BMX and Lake Cycling (via Moore Large), WD40Bike, Tioga (via Extra UK), Vans, Thor MX (via Madison), 100% (viaDecade Europe) and RSD who are making our jerseys”. “I’m stoked that we still have support of many

Cody Thomas: hood antics TM from Rob DiQuattro.
I'll never forget the day I met Cody. I was 18 and had just moved to Columbus for school. I was out pedaling alone looking for spots and other kids on bikes. I found a group and awkwardly forced myself into riding with them. Then Cody rolled up. He came right up to me, asked if I was new, demanded my number, told me he'd be picking me up to ride the flow on the reg, and then made fun of me for being too street, style daddy, and salty cleveland mane. He took me in as a brother without a second thought.
A weekend in Vegas 5050bmx. It's cold up in Utah so Rob Wise, Dave Thompson and Calvin Krey decided to roll down to Vegas for a weekend of shredding. Rob and Dave have both been off their bikes for the last year so. It's unbelievable how good both dues are. We linked up with Dylan Lopez and our little homie Ryan Dare whom works at 5050bmx as a sales person. Ryan had never ran pegs until this weekend. haha Good times in Vegas as always.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
