They're super close. Seems like it would make sense if Reed adds a "filler" rider to his team for next year.

I don't think it would make sense for Reed to add a rider who most likely isn't bringing a major sponsor with him.

Don't mix business with friendship.

But I do see it being possible.

Might want to add Mike Alessi to the list since the three of them have been riding together the last 2 days.

I don't see the benefit of hiring anyone else as long as Reed is riding. Why pay for a half page ad in the back, when you already have the cover?

IF Chad wants to set himself up as a team owner/manager for when he's done riding, might as well get it building now.

He's done some amazing things in that respect in like no time.

Unprecedented, really....

Chad should hit up the Australian government for sponsorship, and make his team the major stepping stone for guys coming out of Aus trying their hand in america,

I think - if possible - Byrne will be looking to stay on a Suzuki in the future, it seems as though he loves the bike....

I honestly think it would be a cool idea for chad to add a 250 rider to the team.

Running one rider is a big risk. If Chad gets hurt they get zero exposure on the track.

JGR will resign Brayton for next year, if that help narrow down the possible riders.

I could see Millsaps being an addition to the team. You could also throw Regal, Durham, Wey, and Blake Wharton in there just for kicks as well.

All of them could bring in other sponsors, and all besides Wey could win races in their respective classes.

Wow, Byrne? I'm not sure about that move..

Kyle Regal would be 10x better.

Reed has talked about young riders he likes; Wil Hahn, Roczen, and Tomac , I think.

I read somewhere that Honda has already agreed to give dungey a bike and he would be under the Two Two umbrella but out of his own semi (Nascar style) Plus he just signed with IMG which handles major stick and ball sports athletes. Target could come aboard for Chad and Ryan and maybe another big sponsor.

Chris Blose. He and Chad get along really well. Plus Chris will make a really good addition to any team. Smile

Yeah, maybe they can wear Racing Mate or Rat Racing gear too. I would tip some coin into an Aussie team.

I like the Tomac and Dungey option but I think it'll be hard for Dungey to step away from Suzuki. I don't know this to be fact but it seems like the biggest expense in racing is the transportation to get to each race. If Reed is willing to bunk up with someone else and throw another bike in the trailer with him, it could be more riders for his umbrella.
