What's his backstory? I've heard several people mention he has a very interesting backstory, but haven't actually heard it. I'm a huge fan of his riding and style but would like to know more about the kid.

I have become a fan too (mostly because he rides Honda) and know zero about him...

Here is some backstories about Gajser. He runs the number 243 in memory for his brother who passed away.

From what i recall his family had to sacrifice allot to help him get to the level he is at now, and went through rough times. It's really a sweet story if you see now how everything is paying of and he's on his way to a MXGP world title!

Dude is super legit and I am pumped that he wants to come across the pond. I hope he wins the title and they actually let him.

You just don't look right without the license plate.

Is he pulling a freestyle trick there, or is he about to bust his ass?

It's been 6 years so I thought it was time for a change.

That was right before a very knarly wreck!

Also...Tim is 100% total badass! He was my pick for the title after round 1 this year. saw how he meshed with that 450 and was going to only improve. He's been my favorite MX2 rider ( on top of Covington ) over the past few years too. Wanted him to beat Herlings. Big fan here.

Wanted him to beat Herlings.

That'd be the only reason I'd like to see him stay.

When and where did that occur? If he got up, then I gotta see that. If not, then nevermind.

Damn that's a scary picture. Gasjer is probably my favorite rider to watch in either series. Seems like a cool guy off the track too. I'm happy he's finding success now and hope it continues for him.

That read and that video makes me an even bigger fan of this kid. Really hope he comes over here to tha U.S. and races here full time. Awesome style and crazy speed. Win that MXGP world title and get over here full time.

I haven't read the above stories , but what made me a big fan of this kid was his dedication to his schooling. He decided to finish school and until this year he said he couldn't train as much as he wanted to because of school. Now that he's done , and can train just for MX....he's become a complete animal!

I also didn't only become a fan of his to beat Herlings , as I've actually warmed up to Jeffrey as well....but it was Tim's go for broke , silky smooth style. I KNOW he was a better MX2 rider than Febvre and as quickly as he started riding the 450 as well as he had at the first round...automatic pick for me since Romain pretty much killed everyone last year.

It would be awesome to see him come to the states...but to be honest , I'd like to see him stay over there another year and build up his street cred a little more before he comes here. I don't think it matters where he races though....he will be fun to watch! Love that kid!

Jeffro,
Please show up for the Glen Helen MXGP. We will have another great time hanging out watching some great racing all weekend.

Are you sure you're not confusing him with Jeremy Seewer? He get his head down at school first then concentrated on his racing. I may be wrong though.

No I don't think So. Tim said that when he was in MX2 he was still doing his schooling and now that he moved up to the MXGP class and was now done with Schooling , he could now focus on training for the sport. I just thought that was pretty incredible that he was one of the top racers in MX2 , but stayed focused on his education first....and now , he's ready to conquer the world. Great story , and why I'm such a huge fan of the kid.

I'm going to try really hard Dwayne! I'm hoping my buddy Wardy decides to go , because without him there , I don't know where to go. he took care of everything as far as flights , motel and travel back and forth to the track. I don't get to travel much so I get kinda lost doing that stuff.

And last year , hanging out with all you guys was just simply awesome! I had such a great time. I really , really hope to make it down there again this year.

Ok my bad, but I know Seewer did the same, engineering degree or something like that. Good to see these kids getting an education in case things don't turn out.
