Vital's Take: The lead-up to this year's Red Bull Straight Rhythm has been intense, as the announcement of the two-stroke class has brought some heavy hitters out of the woodwork. It all started when Ronnie Mac called out Chad Reed...and it just got so much better from there...
Update: Sadly, it sounds like Chad Reed won't be able to compete in the event due to possible injury sustained during warm up runs at Straight Rhythm yesterday. Hope all is well Chad, the banter you and The Mac produced below, made our off-season.
