Road Warriors 2001
Ah, this is awesome. 2020 BMX Magazine took a look way back in the past to their “Road Warriors” video from 2001. After you check out the trailer, head over to their SITE to check out a ton of photos and words. Definitely worth a look!
“In 2001 we pulled together a crew of riders into two vans and road tripped our way from Brisbane to Adelaide, ran a couple of comps and rode a truckload of spots.
This epic trip is now in the digital era as a bonus feature on the new 2020 DVD: Thats Whats Up, a production that showcases just how epic the Australian scene is right now.
You can get your hands on that here as of April 1st 2014: store.2020bmxmag.com.au/product/thats-whats-up-dvd

Sneak Peek: 2020 BMX Magazine – Issue 50
Here’s one I’m especially stoked on! Our friend, Matt Holmes, is about to release the 50th issue of Australia based, 2020 BMX Magazine! Take a little cruise through the flipbook above for a preview, then get ready for the actual issue to drop March 7th!
“A one off mag back in 1998 has continued to roll out of the collective heads of so many talented people and off the printing press 50 times. I’m quietly amazed, definitely very proud and seriously stoked to have been able to put so much back into something that has given me so much over the years.
Looking back through the issues brings back so many memories. The stories, the photos, the mess ups, the events and the amazing times, they all make up what 2020 was, is and will be. I’ve always wanted to showcase just how good the crew in this country are at riding bike’s, shooting photos and expressing themselves off the bike in all sorts of wild ways.
This issue takes a retrospective look at where we’ve come from alongside some amazing content from all around this crazy country. From the high country’s full pipe to the deep end of many an abandoned pool and the streets of Melbourne. The travels don’t stop there with a loose crew hitting up Japan and we catch up with Coco Zurita while he was on our shores. Blazing on the cover and in the company of some of the best riders Australia has ever produced, Benn Pigot going large on the hallowed transitions of Five Dock.
I’m so stoked to have been able to take this journey and create something I can look back on and feel real pride in doing. When so many told me it couldn’t be done, making it to 50 is one way of proving many wrong, but more-so proving that when we have a dream, not much can stand in the way. Dream big, work out how to make it happen and do it. Simple really.
Available Australia wide in print on March 7th and digitally through the 2020 IOS app the same day. Hit up your local BMX source, newsagent or jump online to the 2020 webstore.” – Matt Holmes / 2020 BMX Magazine
Industry.au – Input BMX
Head on over to 2020 BMX for a real good interview with Input BMX‘s owner to talk about his decision to start an Australian based BMX brand that is all produced in-house, his background in BMX product design and machining, the potential future for 3D printing, what the brand has cooking and more. This is a great read and I’m sure all you product nerds will be stoked on it. Take a peek!
Amigos of Holmes Jam
To help raise support for our friend and creator of 2020 BMX Magazine, Matt Holmes, who was recently diagnosed with cancer, a bunch of his friends threw a benefit jam called the Amigos of Holmes. This video gives you a look at the entire day of good times, laughs and support for Matt that looks like was a huge success. Everyone keep Matt in your thoughts because the scene down in Australia wouldn’t be half of what it is today without him!
Nepal DVD
Check out this video I spotted over on 2020 BMX Magazine‘s site. This is a DVD that came out two years back from a BMX and skate trip some friends took to Nepal… Now, I don’t know about you but I don’t exactly think Nepal when I think BMX trips, but then again this goes to prove that maybe I need to start thinking a little more creatively travel wise. This video is more than just riding, it’s also a huge look into the way they do things in Nepal. So much different than here. Definitely watch this!
“In 2011 five friends met in Nepal to skateboard, ride BMX and trek through the Himalayan Nation. Initially I was taking my bike on this trip but four months prior I crushed a vertebrae in my back snowboarding. Greg had torn ligaments in his ankle that still needed time to heal. Riding was out of the question for both of us. Instead of opting out we decided to document as much of the trip as possible. I filmed everything and Greg photographed the antics.
After a very long editing process we finished the video, and released it as a DVD with accompanying photo book. The key concepts of the venture was no profit, no sponsors and use recycled materials wherever possible. As a secondary goal we didn’t want our video to fall into the BMX/skateboarding web-edit, homogenization vat. Both Greg and I are very happy with the result.
I hope you enjoy the video and it inspires you to go for a roll somewhere out of the ordinary.- Sam Dowley
