Take A Look at FBM’s New Warehouse

March 26, 2015

The other day FBM dropped six things you didn’t know about what was going on with their current situation that involved moving, being down a key man and more. Today, Steve hit us up with a link giving us a look at their new warehouse (that looks smaller, but quite a bit nicer than their previous location) that they’re dialing in to get the production of American made BMX frames and parts back on track. You can check out the progress photos, get their new address and phone number and more RIGHT HERE!

The Los Angeles Dirt Park Collective

March 25, 2015

Here’s one we spotted over on Can You Dig It! There’s some momentum moving to get a public dirt park in Los Angeles and here’s the promo video they put together with a few familiar faces putting some real valid reasons out there! Check out then video, then go sign the PETITION and then give their Facebook Page a “Like”!

“Southern California has played such a vital role in the the growth of BMX and Mountain Biking, yet the city of Los Angeles fails to have even one bicycle sanctioned dirt park. There are, however, 52 public skateparks in Los Angeles, but only a handful of them allow bikes.

Our goal is to create the first ever publicly funded, state owned dirt park in Los Angeles. A place for the BMX & Mountain Biking community to call home.

Help us make this dream into a reality by signing the petition.”
