Bmx weekly became BMX bi-weekly in 1983. | |
Mark Noble, Ride BMX UK #8, december 1993: As BMX grew in the early eighties so did the magazines: Bmx Weekly became a full 48 page fortnightly colour magazine and started to introduce freestyle - wich was still a puppy and engrossed in balance tricks, Skyway platforms and spangly uniforms. Didn't last long - became Freestyle BMX. | |
