LMAO! He did that while pulling no-hander reverse cowgirl on a BMX bike in a bar. He came up short on the bar while trying to bunny hop into a ghostie from muskogee and face planted into a beer bottle some guy was holding.

It just seems crazy to me that he says he hasn't tested at all but has been on the bike and riding for quite awhile??! But he gives no reason for not testing, I mean they have a sweet sx track in Vegas I think so why wouldn't they test there especially if they aren't allowed to ride the kawi track? And I hope he gets over his sickness before tomorrow night but it doesn't sound too good going into the start of a long season.
I seriously don't care about what Hanny says... If he does well I won't be suprised, but fuck his whiny, just trying to put it together bullshit is so fucking boring...

Same with Davi sometimes... Love watching them ride, but fuck, you get paid to race a motorcycle, life isn't bad, have a glass of cement and harden the fuck up.

I think this shows the difference between a true professional and a wasted talent,

Reed went into last season with a full PC Bikes, then put it on the box and got more help, Reed seemed pumped with what he had early, at least to the outside world, Hanny is making excuses already,

I had began to like the guy after i saw him here in NZ, and the way he interacted with fans, he seemed to be the real deal, but i bet Watson and Hart are spewing over this interview, he does not give their team much credit,

The "bunny-hop" to "ghostie from muskogee" has left a lot of guys looking like that picture. I think it might have a better outcome if executed in the dirt and instead of the Tavern.

It really is a shame, to have so much talent and to throw it away... I love to watch him ride, awesome style.

I used to get riding lessons from his father, up in Barona Oaks... Too bad he doesn't have the same smarts his father did...

This is the only thing i've ever heard the guy say that's respectable. I commend him for this.

" I kind of feel like I’m selling out if I stay back in the Lites class. That’s not taking anything away from the class because these kids are fast, but at the end of the day they’re kids. I mean, looking back, my career kind of took a weird turn in the middle and took me back to the Lites class, but I just didn’t feel like it would be a respectful championship if I would win it in 2012, you know? It’s like I’m beating the kids. I just really want to start heading up to the 450s and see however that’s going to go and keep building. I want to do that and keep a positive attitude and just keep moving forward. I ride a 450 really well and I feel I can do stuff on a 450 that I can’t do on the Lites bike. I’m just excited to start a new adventure."

I can't wait to see him ride the 450. I question his endurance, but he's got the skill and talent to mix it up with the fab five I believe.

It still amazes me that Hanson and Partridge got these rides over Blose. I bet Blose is going to ride really good this year and hang it out to beat these guys.
Hansen is better than Blose... he should have won the West title last year, and tied on points for it a few years ago. The reason he keeps getting rides is because he has amazing supercross skills.

Off the track he is a loose canon and it affects him fulfilling his potential on it. But he can ride a supercross track really really well... that's why he keeps getting rides. I love watching him ride, such a nice style. Not a fan of his lack of focus and off track antics though. Would love to see him put it all together this season without the distractions.

You guys are dumb to not see that he's trolling you idiots with a lot of those comments.

The only thing that I didn't dig was the way he spoke about his team...

Hanny has created the crap that swirls around him. He has the opportunity to set up himself for ever. And become a respectable person. Right now he just doesn't get it. And some of us "no hair" guys did the same stuff and learned how much we wasted. I hope he figures it out soon.

Completely agree with you on this one machine. There's no doubt he has the talent but he just needs to stop the bullshit ,do work, and quit making excuses. Like the one about not being able to ride at the Kawi track. Maybe its just Hanny that isnt allowed to ride there.

I think this whole "bad-boy" BS is just a strategy by H&H to get PR. It was just like in their video a few days ago where Hansen was drinking in the bar while the team waited for him to show up. It's all just publicity crap.

Hansen, like every professional motocrosser, is a good kid from a good family with good morals and values. He loves America, horses, Democracy, Elvis, and Jesus. He also eats beef and drinks milk. All you haters must hate all of those things to put down such a good, innocent, defenseless little kid like that. Shame on you all.

Lots of doo doo in this thread- "He's puking because he's nervous, Hart is pissed, he should be suspended, he was knifed in a drug deal,"

Some pretty ridiculous spewings!

I totally agree Machine! I was reading comments about dudes busting his ass over the "Kids" commnet. What people don't understand or care to acknowledge is thats his way of saying he is too old for the lites class. Nothing wrong with that because its the truth, those are kids coming in and he is the old man of the class. People need to not take shit so seriously.

I think the bmx deal is bs, but at the same time its a smart excuse. Is he or anyone else going to come out and say "I got into a bar fight and got hit with a bottle"? That would piss off sponsers, and create a shit storm of un needed bs. Stick the bmx story and call it good. Many of us would have done the same thing given the situation. I don't buy into the whole drug deal gone bad shit that is getting thrown out there. I am sure Josh did his share of fun stuff but he seems to have gotten that part of life on track.

H&H doesn't test???? WTF? That is wrong. 2 ex factory racers in Hill and Tedesco and SX winners are on a team that doesnt test. Wonder why he would say that. I am sure that Hill and IT have done a ton of testing and those willbe the 2 dudes running inside the top 10 for H&H. I see Hill there in 4-7th by seasons end. Kid hauls ass.

Hanny is good for the sport, calls it like he sees it, has amazing style and binrgs some outside the box duscussions that keep us entertained Smile
