At the beginning 23mag is a fanzine designed by the local cyclists to publish stuff you don’t usually find in real mags; bmx jokes, crosswords, bmx romantic picture stories,... We published 6 issues from 1998 to 2002. This project was important to us and to finance its printing we would stoop to anything; phone harassment to bicycle retailers to sell them ad pages over priced, sale of bmx articles to the parisian specialized press, corruption of local politicians, prostitution...it became crazy

During summer 2000, I decided to find another mean of communication than ink and paper so I borrowed an HTML book from the library to learn how to create web pages. With an old Windows PC (300Mhz, a 3.2GB hard drive), Internet Explorer, Notepad to type in HTML code, free web hosting, I created the first pages. It was only the online fanzine at first. Then I gradually added various contents to the site (videos, magazines, etc).

A few years later, I'm a rich man (not thanks to the site), the antiquated Windows PC has been replaced by a luxury Apple computer, a software is typing code for me, the web host provider, Anazys.com, is far better than the previous one and the site counts more than 10.000 files in it.
