FATBMX Your Online BMX News Resource Since 1998

Osiris Shoes is proud to announce the addition of Darryl Tocco and Josh Betley to the BMX team. Hailing from Lindendold, New Jersey, Darryl Tocco has gained recognition in recent times for his sections in Transworld Ride BMX's video Insight and TwoByFour's self titled video. When he's not riding, Darryl spends a lot of time behind the camera himself and is currently finishing up Kink's new video, Safety First, which he also has a full section in.

With this jam, they hope to introduce the visiting riders to really good riding locations and spark local interest in riding BMX. We hope you can make it!
