Not namin' names...... you do the math. If you watched the race and the post heat race interviews, it was hard to miss. For me anyway. Maybe it was an optical illusion and I'm out of line.

I was very surprised to see a rider of that caliber, show up in that shape.... man boobs, belly and all.....

I was very impressed to see that kind of result, being in that shape. Great job. Really.

I'm not a hater, in fact I've grown to respect him more every year.

Not very hard to figure out who you're referencing, but he has always been on the chubby side. Doesn't seem to affect his performance, though.

Pretty sure he is referring to Reed. I noticed he had gained some weight around the midsection area but he has been off the bike for quite a while due to his injury. They said he started riding two weeks ago. Give it a few races and the weight will shed off. He's off to a good start this season if you ask me.

What year was it that Reed showed up looking a bit anorexic and said he had lost 20 or 25 pounds? 2006?

I'll point something out and I'm sure a bunch of people will call me an asshole hater but......

I don't think Reed went back to Australia pre-2011 SX and if he did, he did it for a very short time. He was Tweeting pictures of himself riding riding riding while we all were wondering what he would be on. He was pretty damn good last year, better than most (including myself) ever thought he was going to be.

Go back to pre-2010 SX. He did the back in Australia thing for a long time. He signed with Kawasaki and admittedly was very late with testing back in the states. Remember he did the Aussie SX series and many were saying he looked way slow. 2010 pretty much sucked for him and he ended up blaming the bike. Lack of preparation maybe?

Now pre-2012 SX. He was back in Australia for a long time. He Tweeted pics of blistered up hands because he just got back on the bike, that was November I think. I said then a top Pro heading into a new season should not be getting blisters from lack of riding but was called an asshole hater. Anyway, he did get hurt on top of that. Whatever the case may be, there are reasons that RV made them look silly and even Pros without any body fat can be out of shape. For people to be talking about man-boobs? He did very well if he is out of shape, which should maybe set a fire under the other guys' asses as well. We got beat by man-boobs?

here is what you have to remember about the Kawi deal.... when he got on that bike, it wasnt the calibur of bike he had gotten off of. JS7 said it flat out. Add to that, everyone loosing the hands down best tires, which are huge for these guys, coupled with the fact he flat out got to hating Fisher as he got to know him... had all the ingredients to make someone turn sour. ANYONE.

JS7 didnt like Fisher, RV didnt like Fisher, PC got that way, H&H... the list goes on. Mike managed to alienate and piss off alot of people, and its clearly evident- how can you be the team manager for that long, win everything in sight, and get the boot?

JS7 hadn't been with Kawasaki since 2007 at that point. What would he know about the 2010 Kawasaki? RV won 7 SX races on that bike in 2010. RV hated the 2010 so much that he took a paycut to resign with Kawasaki (and Fisher) in 2011?

My point was anyway, that he was unprepared for 2010, not the reasoning to why he left the team. Now with a thread about man-boobs at A1 2012 and what we know about his pre-season, the question is if he is as prepared for 2012 as he should be?

point well taken.

Not sure why I was surprised, maybe it was his roost protector that was mentioned above.

Like I said, I'm not hatin' I respect him. Was just surprised that he looked thick and I was very impressed with a legitimate result pulling away from Dungey and James.

Touche`. LOL. Fair enough.

Oh, there's that "pictures in quote replies" thing again. Just playing. haha

Yea, I think what I was seeing when he was sitting on his bike after the heat being interviewed was the under jersey roost armor. I didn't take that into account when I saw it and he looked uncharacteristically chubby for the Reed that I know of.

I got it wrong. And I'm glad that I did. He was obviously in form on the bike.
