the story I like is the one where he couldn't ride his practice bike for whatever reason and Everts just said to him 'it's cool just take a few days off' and he goes nah heads down to his local dealer and buys a bike to do motos haha

Disclaimer* This story may have inaccuracies as I heard the story a long time ago
Wasn't it because they wouldn't give him a 450 so he just went and bought his own?

@Robgvx - It's just wasteland that people have been riding on and has gradually become whooped out like that. Definitely not an actual track.

That's basically what the "front pit" of Croom is like in Brooksville FL.

This is unreal. I could watch it 100 times. Pay close attention to his front wheel, he floats it everywhere, it stays in almost the same position thru each section and the rear is just soaking up everything. Amazing!

So sick. These videos are the best! No bullshit closeup shots and a worthless letterbox with misfitting music. Just raw shots of someone riding insanely fast. Cool

Looks similar to a track in Northern France, Dunkirk. Difficult enough just getting round, pure poetry in motion.

Riding has always impressed me more than showing off..........
Isn't that just the american pros? Whistling
I always just figure the whips and music are so the vids appeal to the 12-18 year old crowd no matter what country they're from.

Looks pretty slow to me. Needs to sit down through the bumps and turns more. What a squid!

Looks like he's out behind a shopping mall somewhere. Glad he's back, but he's still in the 250 minor leagues, and it looks like he won't be going anywhere anytime soon. If he's making plenty of money doing it then more power to him.

Awesome video. Would like to see the unedited original footage, uninterrupted, from start to finish. Herlings is the undisputed master of sand riding, his skills are amazing.

I hope Red Bull KTM Factory Racing and the Dutch federation come up with a spectacular MXoN livery.

Hoff 450, JH 350 and Pootjes 250

I just hope he stays uninjured from now on.. I'm going to Latvia GP and can't wait to see him ride there.

Awesome, they could win this thing if they all stay fit.

Mxdn the next years should be really interesting with some countries other than Belgium, USA and France having great teams (like Nederlands, Switzerland, Germany Nagl Roczen Hsu/Jacobi, even Spain with Prado and Zaragoza coming up). I can't even wait lol
