Sad news arrived today as BMX has lost another great one. Philippe Peirera died on 23 April 2011. For those who do not remember him, he was one of the greatest ramp riders in the late eighties giving competition to riders like Mat Hoffman and Carlo Griggs. The Frenchman knew how to catch major air and land it smooth. We'll post a few videos to show you what he was all about below. May he RIP. 
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
