Odyssey Vision: Texas Toast & George Boyd
ODSY VISION: TEXAS TOAST JAM AND A QUICK TRIP W/GEORGE from ODYSSEYBMX.COM
“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.” – Odyssey

Ah, man, it’s killing me knowing that I can’t make it down to the Texas Toast Jam this weekend in Austin, Texas. I’ll be up here for the Journey’s Backyard BBQ in Minneapolis with a few of the Etnies crew, while everyone else is down south. Odyssey just dropped the schedule for each day. Take a look below…

Tom Blyth Interview
Photo: Steve Crandall
Tom Blyth is one of those guys who, prior to this interview, I didn’t know much about or what to expect when I sent over questions. I know he kills it on a bike and that he is into music. I also know that being on FBM means it’s required that you need to know how to have a good time. That was really about it. Coming out of the interview I’ve come to find out a whole lot more about the guy that surprised me and that he’s a lot more than what you might expect by looking at him and his riding. Take a look at what he had to say, a bunch of photos from Steven Crandall and Joe Cox, and some of Tom’s past edits, then leave him some love in the comments! This one turned out awesome…
Name: Thomas Reece Blyth.
