I'll admit, I didn't think it was possible.

Okay, two-stroke fans, here's your new hero, Gared Steinke.

It doesn't matter if you're a member of the 2 stroke mafia or not, that's just cool!

Awesome!

It's a good thing that they don't let them run 144's, or there might be 2 of them.

You may not be here, but the mullet is well-represented.

That is awesome!!! That just made my day plus as a bonus it is beer thirty and I am getting ready to throw some steaks on the grill for the family. Looking forward to watching the race with my Dad, he is 82 and loves to watch motocross. I love my 05 YZ-125, it makes this 52 year old very happy. We will be cheering for Gared Steinke today.

Wasn't there more riders on 2 strokes trying to qualify? Did they?

This is awesome. Interesting to see where he finishes.

I've met him a few times, he's a small guy, I'd guess like 160ish... maybe.
