Probably not coming out of retirement, but he did post this to twitter today to mess with us.

He must have got fired up after RV called him a "so-so rider" in SX preview show the other day.

Damn, did RV call out every top pro past and present? First Dungey, now Kdub!

I doubt Windham is preparing for a comeback...but it wouldn't suprise me if Feld has him under contract to do his famous transfers at each SX even this year!

The only transfers KW should be doing at this point is from his investment account to his bank account.

I always pictured KW as the type of guy to get a little husky in his post race days by enjoying beer and bar b que. I don't think we need to see a 230lb kw go crashing from one lane of an sx track to the other.

I suggest if KW wants to stay in the sport he should be one half of the comedy team Hahn/Windham...or he should be in the booth to Don Meredith RC all the time.

Kevin would be the only 230lb rider that could pull off a transfer like that so casually that you'd think he was lining up for the main later. The guy was magic.

KDubb already stated that doing big transfers was out. The feel for jump faces and distance control out that far is just not something you can maintain riding once in a while.

Did anyone else find it interesting how k-dub said on dmxsradio that he was tired of having to do sketchy jumps on the normal part of the race track? Then he goes out and does those crazy transfer jumps week after week... I would love to tag along on a free ride with that dude some day. Amazing the kind of shit he does when he's having fun.

I think race pace and free riding are two completely different things....

Haven't seen the show but if that is a direct quote, that is ridiculous. Kdub has more skills as a rider than rv ever will. Maybe not the championships but that's stupid IMO.

lol if that's an RV quote. Dude stays trolling to keep pouring gas into the retard burning barrel that is this forum.


kw14 is done and just fooling, when he walked that was it- there are no halfways in this sport.

I watched the preview show and I don't remember RV calling WIndham a so so rider. I could be mistaken but I don't remember it.

I find the lack of Windham photos disturbing.

Yep... That second pic is wild! If you stalled your bike in that rut they'd have to send search and rescue.

I'm joking.

Some folks on here got so worked up the other day over what I thought were harmless comments RV made about Dungey in the preview show, that I thought it was an easy joke to make to explain KW's "comeback" by saying RV dissed the King of...eeeerrrrrrrrr, make that Prince of Smooth too.

Also, last week when I said Larry Ward and RV got in a big pissing match on Vital one time over which was better, a treestand or a ground blind for hunting.....I was missinforming in that thread also. I hooked a couple on that one too.Wink

Sorry.Evil
