    On a very warm day a couple months ago, I took a very informative tour of the monolithic operation that is the ODI Grip factory. They literally churn out grips 24 hours a day, five days a week. Unreal. So please sit back and get ready to absorb some info with ODI rider Mike "Hucker" Clark and ODI Brand Manager Colby Young. And yes, you can win that grip package (I believe they have a few of them)...just enter a photo of your favorite place to ride and hashtag #odisummerspot
