Riding like this is and was GAME-CHANGING:
James at 15, still better than 99% of people that have ever thrown a leg over a bike - and he was 15.

Only 17 here, still doing things that NO ONE in the history of the sport was doing.

Show a little respect people. The dude is badass and will always be a badass on a bike.
The dude has found his way into "taining" each and every series since '09.
Is James was ever able to get out of his own way he would be the GOAT^2

Against the rules? Yes. His only real issue is his scheme was a little better than everyone else's. Take the epo off of everyone and Lance still would have dominated.
The only thing I dislike about Armstrong is he went after some individual people pretty hard and ruined their lives financially.
He should have just won his last race and came public.
I know that Honda, Kawasaki, and Yamaha want nothing to do with James.
I have a feeling that Suzuki is fed up with him as well.
So, umm, KTM?
In the Transworld MX interview James said he knew he had to have a prescription but didn't know anything about a TUE. When Racer X interviewed Josh Grant he said the rules need to be more clarified and he didn't think James was cheating.
For all we know there may be many riders who don't have a TUE for their prescription, but they haven't been tested.
This shit was preached OVER, and OVER, and OVER in the rider's meetings.
Maybe he should up his dosage.
Besides, when I raced Road Race Nationals it was very common to not pay attention to the riders meeting after hearing the same thing for many years. Many riders would just stand around talking.
Taking an amphetamine and not checking the list is mind boggling.

I think he thought the testing was for EPO, Steroids, etc.. And it sounds like Grant did too.
JGR Yamaha’s Josh Grant: “I know everyone is getting a lot hype on the drug-testing thing, but I think it needs to be a little more clarified—what they have for rules and stuff. If you’re doing EPO or blood transfusion, then I think that should be banned. But if you’re going to take something the doctor prescribed to you—Adderall or NyQuil or DayQuil or whatever it is—you have to keep your body healthy, and I don’t think they understand what we have to go through for this sport. I guess if we were dribbling a basketball back and forth it would be a different story, or if we were playing baseball … it’s not really that gnarly. I think for us, our body goes through so much, and we don’t have any time to take breaks and stop, so you have to keep healthy, and if the doctor thinks that’s what you need, then that’s what you need. I don’t think Stewart is cheating or anything. I think it’s bogus. I don’t always agree with what they have banned and don’t. But hey, whatever. That’s their deal.”
The riders have an explicit list of what not to consume.
EDIT: Grammar
BTW, I think the testing is a horrible idea.
so,if I was prescribed any meds ,my first thought would be ,gee,..... is this legal or illegal regarding the rule book.let me do research..
and I am not wealthy enough to have people in my corner to protect my best interests.
if a rider is that laxed about one medication,makes one think how much stuff they take on a regular Dailey ritual.
Carmichael ride a 125.
Your not in his shoes and you have no ground to stand on, so let it play out!!!
Perhaps the toilet...? One too many nights hugging the porcelain maybe?
