Does Anyone Ride More Than J-Law?

If you follow him on Instagram you'll see that he posts riding videos EVERY DAY.

The guy must absolutely love to ride. I wouldn't be surprised if he puts more time in on the seat than many pros.

You always wonder what if ... A couple others come to mind Austin Stroupe and the the Wharton brothers... What are they doing ?

Funny, I was just thinking this like an hour ago after i saw more vids from him. He rides so much I would probably be well and sick of it if it were me!

I was thinking the same thing a couple days ago. He's fun to watch ride, and still has some great talent.

Looks like he still has sponsors, As long as he is riding and putting out videos/picture to social media they're still gaining exposure he still gains some sort of paycheck or support from them.

That's just my take on things.

This is what comes to my mind


And if I ride everyday like it appears he does I would get burned out

Hopefully he invested it well. Only had a few years earning the bigger dollars.

I have no clue what kind of money he made or spent . I know he spent some when he tried to have his own team . I suposeed he could be making enough racing money classes . I wonder if he even owns a home ? I wish I could make enough to just ride everyday

He has said several times he would love to be racing again. Hes smart enough to know he would go broke paying his own way. Every time someone asks him, he says the same thing, if a sponsor wants to pay for it, he will line up. Otherwise, he isnt racing on a national level again.

Man I've been thinking the same thing for a long time! I'm older and a little lazy, don't ride as much as I used too and I could. It's cool to see that. I get a vicarious thrill out of it just like I do when people come over and rip my mini bikes here at home. The fact that he's pro AND a title winner just sweetens it. To each they're own.

Now this is a guy I would love to see in the GP's. He has enough natural talent to adapt to any track, all he is lacking is the discipline to show up and do what he is supposed to do. Guys like him do not need the Baker type training to last 35 minutes.

Its being selfish on my part but I wish people that have that God given talent that so few possess would put it on display for us fans instead of burning laps on practice tracks.

We could sponsor him? Eh GuyB? Vitalmx crowd funding could do it. There are tons of people on here that would throw in money. Let's make this happen. Maybe we could start small at some arenacrosses.

Racing the series would take serious dough. I can tell JLaw has aged, as some other videos when he looks so much younger. I don't know how old he is, but its cool to see these videos.
He also has a different riding style than most, I noticed he keeps his arms down alot, not that it hampers his speed any, its just that his style to go fast is much different than most fast guys.
I would love to see him do a few nationals, but I don't see it happening unfortunately. To score points, he would have to take training seriously, similar to what Christian Craig did in the off season even though he wasn't signed. Nobody that isn't training at a fairly high level at JLaw's age is jus gonna come to the races on these rutted and rough tracks and put down 30 + 2 and keep lap times necessary to score points. Just ain't gonna happen.
