Bmx Action Test Pilot Pins and Buttons
Description: BMX began during the early '70s as kids inspired by motocross racers began racing their bicycles on dirt tracks in southern California. In 1974, the National Bicycle League formed as a BMX sanctioning organization and regular organized races began to come together. As BMX racing began to reach a fever pitch, Bob Osborn and Wizard Publications launched Bicycle Motocross Action Magazine in 1976. The new mag would quickly become known as the BMX bible, tracking the races, points, events, riders, and of course, the latest in BMX bikes and equipment. The name was changed to BMX Action in 1982 and the publication continued to run until 1989 at which point it was combined with Freestylin' Magazine to become 'Go' which ran until 1992.
Description: Kick up the dirt with this high-energy “BMX Action Test Pilot” 1982 design, featuring bold comic-style artwork, explosive racing motion, vintage 80s colors, and gritty distressed textures that capture the adrenaline of classic BMX culture—perfect for riders, retro extreme-sports fans, freestyle collectors, and anyone who loves the iconic era of fast turns, dirt tracks, and legendary BMX action.
Description: The First American Volunteer Group (AVG) of the Republic of China Air Force, nicknamed the Flying Tigers, was formed to help oppose the Japanese invasion of China. Operating 1941–1942, it was composed of pilots from the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC), Navy (USN), and Marine Corps (USMC), and was commanded by Claire Lee Chennault.
