As we count down the final hours of 2018, it’s time once again for our annual year-end list of the top videos from the past year. Take a look back with us at some of the videos that we felt made the strongest impression on our viewers and the scene as a whole. The list is in no particular order and is not based on any web statistics or analytics. Simply put, there are no winners or losers. With that in mind, we invite you to sit back, re-watch and enjoy.
In August we exclusively premiered Adem Gunaydin’s ‘Welcome To Legend Bikes USA‘ video here on the site. Adem’s inaugural video is packed from start to finish with solid riding and jaw-dropping bangers. The video was filmed and edited by Nick Elison with additional filming provided by Chris Girouard. Adem is currently recovering from knee surgery he had earlier in the year, and we hope to see him back on his bike in 2019!
For those of you that haven’t seen the Daily Grind’s latest DVD ‘Rerouting’, Ride BMX has been exclusively uploading sections from the video through their website and YouTube channel. For those of you that have seen the video, it’s well worth a second watch.

The Daily Grind has released an eleven-minute video online documenting their recent trip to Richmond, Virginia. The trip included the Daily Grind crew along with some of their friends, locals, and even a few members of the FBM crew. The trip looked like one hell of a good time, and the video is packed with solid riding from everyone involved. There’s even a session on the infamous Power’s Bike Shop ramps. You’re not going to want to miss this one.

On Saturday, August 25th, the Stink Pit crew premiered their latest video ‘Stink Pit 5’ in Aston, Pennsylvania. The event was hosted at Ryan Serrano‘s new house and included a DIY ramp session, a BBQ, the premiere of the video, and a bonfire to cap off the night. Shortly after, Ryan reached out to us with some photos from the event shot by Dave Homer. The photos took a while to obtain, but they are finally available for your viewing pleasure after the jump.
Special thanks to Ryan Serrano, Dave Homer, and the Stink Pit crew.
The Street Series was originally started in the U.K. by Tom Creasy, DUB BMX, and Monster Energy. In its six-year lifespan, The Street Series grew from an idea into a globally recognized event staged in cities around the world and held in support of BMX Day. The final Street Series took place on Saturday, July 22, 2017, and was hosted in Melbourne, Moscow, Paris, London, San Diego, and Philadelphia. Dan Lacey returned to host the event in Philadelphia for the second year in a row, and with the assistance of Matt Miller and the Chocolate Truck crew, guided the crowd of hundreds of BMX riders from spot to spot through the neighborhoods of North Philadelphia.
One year later, we reconnected with some of the locals that were in attendance as well as our contributing photographers, Sam Downs, Frank Ashbridge, and Kyle Dipilla, for a look back at the final Street Series in Philadelphia. Frank Ashbridge also edited together some previously unseen footage that he filmed during the 9th and Poplar stop of The Street Series.

Dan Conway fights the good fight in the fourth installment of “Battleclip” a Ride BMX feature series which aims to showcase the inner-struggle that riders overcome as they battle inanimate objects with their bikes.

Merritt has just released a new edit featuring Justin Care on their website. The video was filmed and edited by Dan Conway over the last year and is full of heavy street riding moves, smooth tech. lines, and a bunch of progressive up rail combos. These guys did a great job keeping this one under wraps and Justin delivers another in a series of solid edits on behalf of Merritt. Unfortunately, Justin broke his wrist on a rail hop last night and will be sitting out for the next few weeks. Click play and enjoy.
