Yeah, just another euro caught in mid-crash pose, duh!! And come on, he's #98, nobody with that high a # could bar drag a corner. We all know that.

I learned that you can intentionally wreck and admit to wrecking another NASCAR driver at 188 miles an hour, destroy the race car and not have a fan base of pussies crying.

But thats cos the fans come for the crashes , not the racing ... 500 laps , to then end up doing green/white/checkers...

Dont get me wrong , i like NASCAR and was lucky enough to be involved in a Daytona 500 1-2 a couple of years ago , but you cant compare it to SX ... these guys are wearing a 1mm shirt, not 25 yards of rollcage

To extend, and what was learnt this month, and I quote .....

Cold Shower Therapy

I bet this is part of aldon bakers training. I just started doing it and I feel like a badass. It gives you a Spartan attitude,your gonna have to kill me to stop me mindset. I rode the best I ever have since doing this. It kills anxiety and fear and teaches you perseverance. It's a simple choice hot or cold,but only a warrior attitude can do the cold. Look into it trust me.

I've learned that I might just be smarter than I though. After some of the stuff I read on here this week I feel like some sort of super genius!

Either that, or some people are just much dumber than I thought and their stupidity made me feel superior. Tongue

I've learned to question some of Darwins's theories. The theory of Natural selection should have eliminated those posting some of the comments I've read from the gene pool millennia ago.

1. Mike Alessi hitting his front wheel into Broc Tickle's bike at 90 degrees and thereby having his bars wrenched out from his hands = 'clutching it into his opponent.'

2. For an ill-judged, poorly timed and badly executed block pass that is seen as a deliberate take-out he should end up dead or in a chair.

3. Anyone who thinks it wasn't pre-meditated attempted murder is an imbecile.

4. Motocross is now attracting people who think it's cool to get married in Fox T shirts and Bro flat bills. Class.

5. The official MX2 world championship, recognised and sanctioned since 1975 by the world governing body of all motorcycling is a support class and doesn't count as a real championship. 250 class in America does through.

7. 95% of the world's fastest riders race in the USA.

8. There is no Honda, Kawasaki or Suzuki factory team in GPs.

9. Jeffrey Herlings is a coward because he races in the MX2 world championship and this is nothing to do with either the fact that he is only 19, or that he is a professional motocross rider paid to race where his current employers tell him to, or that in truth most of his potential competition has been forced out of the class under a ridiculous age rule.

10. A rider dominating a class in Europe is an indication of weakness of opposition, but MC, RC etc doing the same in the US is a reflection on their speed and not depth of competition.
Spot on, mate.

And political correctness. Remove all the warning labels and let the system sort it all out.

Aaaaaah the old classic line about having saved our asses in WWII... always a favourite on Vital

Don't forget YOU instigated most of the recent 'crap talking' with these choice comments...

GP riders are "hiding in the closet with sand in their manginas"

Herlings: "you are champion of nothing except the "support" class until you step up and race with the big boys. Until that happens it will always be a fourth rate series, as I would rather watch Endurocross, GNCC, off-road truck racing before watching the GPs."

You could always just get over your problem with Herlings opting to race MX2 class for one more year and just enjoy watching the kid ride instead.
