“It’s Saturday and that means bike check time. But this week, we’re trying something a little different. With the help of So Cal’s Tommy Blanco, we’re bringing the bike check to video, and the first candidate is Fit Bike Co. pro team member Shawn Mcintosh. On a recent trip to So Cal, Shawn ran through his setup, hops a fence and makes a rickety rail rideable. Video by Tommy Blanco.” – ESPN

Daniel “Lil’ D” Martinez Bike Check
“Volume / Demolition pro team member Daniel “Lil D” Martinez’s latest setup is street-ready, brakeless and judging from the way Daniel rides, very smooth. Recently, ESPN contributing photographer Tommy Blanco met up with Daniel to film some riding, and in between getting clips, Daniel ran through the finer points of his bike. And by the way, how many people in BMX can have the nickname “Lil” before we start confusing everyone? I think there are two “Lil” riders on the Volume team alone.” – ESPN

The Tug Life
Raul Ruiz, Daniel “Lil D” Martinez and Luis Caballero get a session in at a skate plaza. There’s seriously something about a real high quality black and white edit that looks sooo damn good. Add in the real good riding and it’s Charlie Sheen Winning status. I have a feeling Tommy Blanco has a bunch of new edits coming through with his site TugLife.net, so I’m looking forward to that. Even though I think of something way different when thinking of “Tug Life”.
