Here’s a little news that isn’t exactly how you want to start the day. Jon “Gremlin” Bechtold, all around badass on a bike and owner of The Daily Grind, has been diagnosed with carcinoma cancer and could use your help! There has been a GoFundMe page setup to help raise $10,000 (currently over halfway there!) to help with medical costs and keeping his family rolling while he’s getting chemo treatment over the next few months. Over the years Jon has been putting in a TON of work to support BMX and he’s definitely a dude you know is going to put in the work and fight this. If you have a few bucks to spare, you can donate right here. If you don’t just make sure you share the news to help spread the word in the BMX community. Anything helps! You got this, Jon!
“Johnathan Bechtold aka Gremlin was recently diagnosed December 3rd with stage 3 carcinoma cancer.
Gremlin started his first of a three month treatment of chemo on December 23rd.
Like most obstacles in his life. He has approached with crash or roll away a winner. He is taking this diagnosis head on and going for broke.
In addition to his treatment, there will be lots of medical needs and new dietary requirements for Gremlin to help support his his body during treatment and recovery.
With that being said this young family, Emma, his wife, and two sons Vander (9 yrs old) and Zane (3 yrs old) could use a helping hand and assistance, truly anything amount of money will help. We know this fight is as physically, emotionally demanding as it is financially. We want to try and lighten the load for this family as Emma works full time, and any additional assistance will help towards medical bills and taking care of the day to day bills and this young family.” – GoFundMe
