The Daily Grind – DIY Jam Video
[video_widget]
Sometimes in order to have a good time, you need to put in some hours to build something awesome. The Daily Grind crew recently got a crew together, pulled out the welder, a few bags of quick crete and a jackhammer and went to work on creating a do it yourself spot that was a pegs dream come true! Once everything was set and ready to ride, they rallied the troops for a day filled with good times. Check out this video featuring Jon “Gremlin” Betchtold, Scott Steele, Vince Smith, Alex Hetrick, Jordan Stump, Zack Gerber, Troy Merkle, Cody Thomas, Shay Lashley, Jake Coulson, Greg Goldberg, Frankie Lang and Damien Racut all getting plenty of use out of this rough spot turned amazing.

Troy Merkle Bike Checks
Troy Merkle is one rider whose riding has always stood out to me. There’s something about the way he puts all four of his pegs and freecoaster to proper use that really looks good. When his part from The Daily Grind DVD dropped online the other week, I started thinking it would be a good idea to get ahold of him to take a closer look at his bike. It just so happens that he currently has two setups that he’s running these days; one for street and one for flatland. So we decided to do a bike check for both of his bikes! Let’s take a closer look at this freecoasting, double tire riding wizards setups!

Troy Merkle really went in for his signature bar promo edit. As far as I can recall, it has been a while since the last edit from him. Now I see why. I’d say it was well worth the wait.
On The Horizon: The Daily Grind
I think at some point in every BMX riders life, they dream of starting their own company. 99% of the time the idea never really goes beyond that. That wasn’t the case from Jon “Gremlin” Betchtold who almost accidently started The Daily Grind. What started out as a website for him to post photos and videos eventually lead to a hub guard. Shortly after that, bar ends, a hub and a pedal. It’s awesome seeing how ideas can grown and change and when those ideas are left to a guy who actually rides, seeing quality being the main concern is even better. The Daily Grind might be a new name to what is commonly referred to as a flooded market, they’re doing things different than the cookie cutter brands that have been coming and going pretty quick lately. I decided it was time to find out what this operation was all about and to give you guys a little background on what they’re all about. Let’s take a look!
