I can feel flashes of being completely connected with my bike and totally confident in what we could do together.

At the high points like this cover I just knew the bike and nothing was gonna’ shake me.

This is pretty much the exact opposite of how I feel whenever I ride my bike. This is also why Taj is the man and why he was capable of doing such extraordinary things. Head over to Collateral BMX and join him on a trip down memory lane.

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!
