As we await photos of Gary’s bike to complete the post below, i figured i can fill everyone in on the new Limited Edition PURPLE Odyssey Linear Cables which should be showing up any day now at shops and mailorders.

It’s purple, we are sold out, these things come and go, so get on it. You need a way to stop your bike anyway. Good last minute stocking stuffer, if you have one.

Someone got a new bike…bike check coming soon…

Sorry for the lack of updates, its been busy round here. Chase Hawk and Jimmy Le Van have been in town, so we have been working hard. From a few different cameras, here is some of the things we’ve been working on.

We got Ride BMX, Twenty BMX, and even ESPN coverage! I guess thats why we had Pros, Frame Builders, Bike Company owners, Contest Judges, Street riders, Flatlanders, etc. A true BMX event.

Happy Holidays, Happy Birthday Lauren.

Empire Cycle South Africa/Odyssey rider Colin Loudon took the win at the RIOT JAM that recently went down. Congrats.

Bodo Hellwig from our german distributor SPORT IMPORT has a little interview on FATBMX. He is the Odyssey purchaser at Sport Import and does a great job.

Handy-dandy little chart on the packaging helps you figure out what size you need/can use with most Odyssey/Gsport hubs and rims.(this can easily be used as an estimate for many other rim/hub combos)

The Fort Contest in Arizona went down this weekend, and it went pretty well.
I missed the Pro Dirt because I had to go to Target to buy bandages and first aid supplies for some stupid rider who went down. Pro Park went down full of riders you have never heard of but were killing it. I will hold back from a description, and hope AZ locals, riders and spectators will tell you what they thought.

Dirty Dan turned 18 and had a great time doing so in AZ.
Happy B day Dirty.

Woozy had this up with Gary. Speaks for itself.

We’re all pleased to welcome Ben Ward as Odyssey’s newest R&D employee. Ben will be working with us to take our new products from the concept stages through to full on production. As a long time Portland resident, he’ll have to adjust to the constant sunshine and terrible traffic. I recommend sunglasses of some kind, and a Sirius satellite radio.

Be sure to say “hi” to Ben if you see him at your local skatepark.

Thanks for reading.
