It looks like Sparkys Distribution is having some of their crew stop by Bikeland USA in The Woodlands, Texas on May 30th to hang out with the kids, sign autographs and what not, then get out to Bear Branch skatepark for a session. If you are in the area, it should be a good time with that crew.
There’s a benefit trails jam going down May 15th to help raise some money for Mike Tag at Casselberry trails. $5 bucks gets you a good time, and knowing you are helping a legend out who’s going through a tough time. Get there if you can!
The guys over at Forty Distribution are throwing a video contest in Chicago. Basically, you go out, film an edit, show up to the event and show it. The winners will be awarded cash and prizes. Hit their site to register first and get all the details. They will also be having a raffle and all drink proceeds will be going to Mike Tag’s cancer benefit. If you can be apart of this event, do it. It’s for a good time and a good cause. Check out the updated flyer after the jump…

It would appear that Odyssey have added a bunch of new sponsors to the event. Here’s an update on what else to expect…
“Texas Toast Jam is coming up May 27-29.
We just added Fox, Subrosa, Shadow, Tree Bikes, Blacken and KVRX 91.7 to the event sponsor list. So glad to see BMX pulling together to make sure we all have a fun event.
Confirmed VIP guests to the event are Mat Hoffman, Mike Dominguez, and Brian Blyther. We heard Ron Wilkerson, Dave Friemuth and The Lord Voelker may make it as well!
All the best pro riders will be here to shred the dirt jumps and street obstacles. Darryl Nau of Blacken is heading up announcing duties with assistance from FBM’s Steve Crandal. Darryl is also using his considerable party skills to set up some epic after parties. Ringmaster Leland Thurman is now directing the action at the Gauntlet of DEATH. Watch riders brave its treachery and take on a 48 foot long dragon!”
Register for dirt here.

This sounds like the place to be on May 1st in New York. Get there if you can!
Sadly, I won’t be able to make it to Taj’s Texas Toast Jam down in Austin, Texas next month since I’ve got a shoot with some of the Etnies crew for an event up here in Minnesota. However, there have been a ton of updates that you can check out here with basically all the info on where to stay, what to eat, etc. Also, registration for Pro Dirt has been opened up. You won’t want to miss this one if you can.
From April 18th through April 25th, some of the United team will be invading France to film and then hit the “Friendly” contest at the end of the trip. If you are in France, be on the look out!
