Yeah, that was pretty good.
I could see Tickle staying at PC on 450's for one more year, but will be 2nd chair to someone like Dean.
The coolest thing ever to see Townley do was when Alessi cleaned him out in the first moto at the Glen Helen USGP in 2010 and he came out swinging for the second moto and completely kicked the shit out of Alessi, Cairoli, and everyone else.

If true, im looking forward to the outdoors more and more. I think he will be just below the big 3 but above the rest of the field and if he gets a sniff, he can get moto wins.

Saw him race here a few weeks ago, he's to good to be racing Aus series.

I hope it doesnt happen. The dude just doesnt seem very likeable. Chad has a good thing going. He should take care not to ruin his...

Also, I wonder what he could do with (coaching) Tickle next year... Just a thought.
Tickle is a good guy, hopefully things turn around for him. Don't think it would ever happen on the twotwo team though.

Short even admitted he left the door open and should've saw it.
That's old news though and they've both probably moved on.

1) Tickle has no personality compared to Townley and not nearly as much talent..ask Mitch
2) This is a pretty good move for CR22...only guys I would sign as a replacement rider right now are CP377 or BT101 (if CP377 wouldnt ask for an arm and a leg)
3) Townley is good but I dont expect him to win any races..

RC going to TWOTWO???? "had a great week of riding this week.. Really looking forward to it
"--RC.....
."told you it'd start to all come back to ya!"--CR22.........
"u should have came up to Indy with me so we could finalize the details.."--RC.......
."I'll just see you Monday morning bud..".....CR22
Obviously they are just playing around on twitter or talking about 22 in the booth. But when I think about it, maybe it makes sense. What is RC 33???

Dont know who it will be, but bet it will be someone who can be in the top 3......At that is a short list of names who are not under contract.

Good for Townley, bad for the team? They need a top 3 contender to stay relevant...

Will be interesting to see how this fold out.

Be great to see Townley back here on a good team/bike. I think he is very capable of winning and being a top 5 guy week in and week out. Not sure about some of you guys saying he does not have a personality?? He is actually one of the nicest pros ive spoken too and seems to always have the time for his fans and the kids. I know results are more important but it comes with the territory. He is a perfect fit on that team especially with Ozzy and Goose leading him in the right direction with set up and coaching in general. Not to mention Reed helping him out. Hopefully it happens .
