Reed Not Racing Steel City

By Steve Matthes

Despite the earlier report that Chad Reed was in for this weekend's Steel City National, unfortunately we just got confirmation that Suzuki decided to pull the plug and save his team debut for a later date

That's BS. WTH is Decoster doing over there? He isn't letting anyone ride.

A) Decoster is playing the role of USA mxon team manager. He does not want chad reed to have any real race practice prior to the mxon.

Cool Reed does not want Stewart to gain confidence going into sx by totally humiliating him at steel city. As Stewart would to any member of the entire human race.

C) Reed is a chicken shit sx only pansy ass drama queen and we should get rolling on the hate reed threads now instead of waiting for the end of the 4 month off season.

Sounds to me like it was RD's decision and not Reeds.

Reed would have made that zook look bad... Reed would be a 5th through 10th place rider anyway.

sp1tekiller, whatever your screen name means, is that you in the pic? If so, get off the computer, and go work on keeping your elbows up. And get your head over the bars... And pick your foot up...

If thats your best riding pic, well, damn...

(just giving you a hard time man)

I saw Chad ride the other day and he is by no means SLOW or out of shape. I think him not racing may have other complications that many dont know or understand right now and RD saw those and decided it was not a good idea..........Just my .02
