2012 Odyssey Texas Toast Explained
I’m slowly dying inside knowing that I’ll be stuck at work and not in Austin, Texas for the Texas Toast Jam…
“Several years ago, following an ongoing back injury, Taj Mihelich turned his focus from riding BMX as a pro to working for Odyssey BMX. Aside from spearheading a new project known as Faridale Bicycles out of Odyssey, one of Taj’s responsibilities was event planning. Odyssey, and Taj, wanted to channel the spirit of past BMX jams that were homegrown, progressive and outside the boundaries of the established norms, such as the Backyard and Metro Jams. Texas Toast was born. Last year, Texas Toast came to Austin and pitted pro riders against obstacle courses, custom-made rideable obstacles from a variety of brands, and contests in dirt and “park.” It was, for many a return to a simpler time in BMX, and this coming weekend, Texas Toast returns for its second year.
In the above video, Mihelich goes behind the scenes of the planning and discusses what to expect as 98% of the worldwide BMX scene descends on Austin, Texas. Video by Charlie Crumlish.” – ESPN BMX

Texas Toast Jam 2011
The other day when the dates for this years Texas Toast Jam reminded Arnold Vigoa he was slacking and forgot to drop this video he made from last years. Incase you needed some motivation for why you should go this year, hit play and it should be clear as to why you need to be there.
“So I went out to Austin to ride and have fun at the Texas Toast Jam. We showed up at night so we went straight to the bars, however I crashed on the drunk ride back to the hotel. So it changed my role and made me a filmer haha. It took me a while to make this as I wanted to take my time and try to grab the vibe as much as I could.
Enjoy!
