Some things happen for strange reasons, or reasons that aren't clear to the public. The X-Games has seen BMX disciplines come and go. After much lobbying it's good to see that DIRT is back in. But what other discipline do you think deserves to be part of the 2015 program? It's a good thing they're asking the public. That will give them an idea of what people really want to see. Instead of adding another motor sport, it will be better to add a BMX medal to the games. Would BMX racing be the one? It's a none-judged sport so that could work well. Or what about flatland? Is it spectacular enough these days to get added back into the X-Games? Let's be real, the park discipline at the X-Games has been more of a backyard bowl contest the last couple of years.

After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
