Ricky thanks for all you give back to the sport..
When you are commentating races on TV are you constantly having to think about any "bias" showing through for your own riders?
Any chance you guys have room for a multi-time moto/supercross champion?
Given the relationship you had with Ryan Dungey, both business and personal, did you guys ever have interest in him?
With Chad Reed and James Stewart closing on their long careers, what advice do you have for either of them to obtain one last championship?
Blondes or brunettes?

how did you get jimmy john's to sponser?...did you talk to jimmy john himself?......if you eat there what # do you get?
you have a B-day coming up soon....Happy birthday!
next track you design should have a giant step jump....
if you had the time would you race r/c cars/trucks at all?
do you really drink monster?
thanks for doin this
And what about your Friendship with GP legend Stefan Everts ? I remember SE72 flew out to usa to watch the last ever RC4 supercross race. I find it really inspirational 2 such big legends get along well
Thanks for all the great moto memories. Also thanks for being so PRO Motocross Of Nations, it's allways more fun when USA competes.
If not, I do have a different question. What's the biggest difference between a championship winning/contending team and an "also ran" team? Obviously a lot comes down to the rider, but is it the off track personnel? Factory parts? Or getting that setup just right?
Mitch Payton said that you and Mc were the greatest riders not because of your desire to win but you hatred for loosing. In saying that can you name the race that you would call your hardest loss?
Came in here just to read some of his comments
One in particular is the Nascar ride. What happened there? I thought you showed promise, a lot more promise than most folks that come from the two wheel sports to Nascar.
Hope to hear from you RC, even if it's just a few comments, have a good one and thanks for the memories!
"I've got chunks of guys like you in my stool!"
Ricky, I think I can honestly say that I am your biggest fan (in Wales, ha!). My brother and I used to watch the 2001 season a week behind the live schedule as it was all terrestrial TV back then, but we absolutely idolised everything you accomplished and it brought my bro and I very close together, which meant a lot to me, so thank you!
I can think of a tonne of questions, but one when will you be back over here in the UK for your RCU? I was pretty gutted when I found out afterwards that you were performing it at Apex Motocross (Worcester, England) which is my practice track, so hopefully next time you come over I'll be able to join your session and learn from the best!
All the best, and take care of yourself man,
Grant.

Hey, maybe we need to get RC to arrange his next one at Apex then
favorite MEC track design?
best year at the ranch and what classes did you go in?
Thanks rc
Perhaps you are a no regrets type of man; even so, in the context of your motocross career - considering all of your successes and challenges - it could have always been better in a Champion's eyes, so what is the ONE thing you would have done differently?

Is it line choice, braking points, body position etc etc ? You tell me
As an aside...thanks for a couple of great quotes such as "you make your own luck" and "keep doing what you've always done and you'll get what you've always gotten." Some of the kids I work with would only know you for these 2 statements.
One question...I remember (I think) you mentioning once that you ought to write a book once your career is over. Any chance we will see anything like this from you one of these years down the road?
Do you still own your bbr perimeter 110 ? If so will you sell it to me haha
Oh and your favourite des nations track you raced (not including Budds!)
