ODSY VISION:
Texas Toast Jam and a Quick Trip w/George

For this episode of ODSY Vision, we bring to you our favorite clips from the Texas Toast Jam and a quick trip with George Boyd. He lives a few hours north of Austin so we met up with him a couple days prior and filmed a handful of clips along the drive.

Thanks to everyone who flew, drove, walked and pedaled to the Texas Toast Jam. You guys helped make it a good time with plenty of fun in the sun. Hope to see everyone again next year!

For a full, comprehensive look at the Texas Toast Jam, make sure to click HERE to view all of the photo galleries and videos we have gathered of the event.

Texas Toast Jam:
AITKEN!!!

This is quite possibly one of the most defining moments of the Pro Dirt Comp of our Texas Toast Jam. Mikey’s still recovering from the traumatic head injury he suffered a few years ago and had not entered any contests since. The energy and atmosphere of the event and everyone in attendance got him so psyched that he got on his bike and took one hell of a rebel run. This moment literally brought chills and tears of joys to many.

And to every one asking about video coverage of the event, sit tight. There’s plenty in the works!

SHIPMENT:
Aitken’s Hellbent Gloves

Available now in Black, Brown and White. You can get them in medium, large and extra large.

Aitken’s signature “HELLBENT” gloves are in.

Mike wanted a fingerless style glove that would allow him to have some contact with his brake lever, give him some good grip and help him look even more bad-ass while driving his car.

Hellbent gloves feature a padded palm, perforated top and Mike’s signature “diamond” graphic on the strap. Available now in Black, Brown and White, in medium, large and extra large.

Riders hit up your local bike shop or mailorder. Dealers can contact Seattle Bike Supply, QBP, Custom Cycle, J&B or Full Factory Distro.

Hang on and Ride.
