In other parts of the web, Jim Cielencki was in town for a handful of days last week and has a Top 5’s feature over on Defgrip. Ironically enough, Mike Dominquez was in our office last week too so JC can cross off one of the items in his “Top 5 People I’d Like to Meet” list.
Aug 15, 2008 • Team, Videos Flickr Group Photo Picks
A lot of great photos have been popping up lately in the Odyssey Flickr Group. We decided to pick out some of our recent favorites and share them with you guys.

Jul 8, 2008 • Product New Aitken seats are in!
Speaking of Aitken, the new Nightwolf and Denim Red saddles have arrived at our warehouse, and they are looking niiiiiice.
The Nightwolf saddles are available in the two colorways shown, Grey and Blue/lavender fade. The NEW Denim version is a “reverse” black denim (opposite side of regular black denim), which looks like a light greyish and has red stiching. You may have seen it on Chase Hawk’s bike, as they were his idea.
Contact your local shop or mailorder for more info.
Jul 3, 2008 • News Old Mike Aitken Ad
I had to hack into Bauer’s computer today to look for a photo, and came across this Aitken ad from a little while back. Basically, It’s being posted because it’s badass!!!
This photo was taken in our warehouse here in California during one of Mike’s visits. Our sketchy ramps were setup in front of the stock shelves (you can see some of the inventory) in the best location to allow Mike some setup and runway space from outside. Jeff Z. was called in, and Mike fired out this sweet move.
If you look closely, you can see our forklift, and the extension cord which is powering the Odyssey sign.
Click on the pic to see it big.
Have a good 4th of July weekend!
Jun 24, 2008 • Product, Team NIGHTWOLF
Certain parts of the world have already received the Mike Aitken Nightwolf saddles, so keep and eye out in your local shop or mailorder.
We should be receiving our shipment of both Nightwolf saddles early next month, along with a new denim version of Mike’s seat as well.
Speaking of Aitken, check out his recent Fit ad that was featured in the latest ride. Click!
