Any shots of the Factory Yamaha rig?


Thinking this will be the year of the young guns, Anderson, Seely come to mind.
Not Tomac? Eli is a couple years younger than Cole.

This I going to be the hardest opener to watch ever for me. I promised my riding buddy I would watch it with him and his wife Sunday morning. I have to stay away from the Internet and TV until Sunday morning.
Makes me appreciate how far the sport has come over the years. I remember the days we used to pay per view Vegas just to see a live race.

Observations.. Chad looked FIT. He looked reserved, almost as if he knows something some don't. That he can and will win in 2016. Cole doesn't mind...
Observations..

Chad looked FIT. He looked reserved, almost as if he knows something some don't. That he can and will win in 2016.

Cole doesn't mind what his sponsors think of him shredding on a 20" in the offseason, it's all about "timing". Socially awkward also came to mind.

Christophe is happy he gets to share the stress of a Frenchman in the premier class with Marv. And the HUSKY is good.

Kenny shouldn't of eaten that Cali Burrito before go time. Rumor is he was yelling for RC from the porto for more TP, but the GOAT was no where to be found.

Trey will not state the obvious. Only that his Japaneese stint was more than just a commitment to HRC, but also a damn good vacation.

Jason believes AB is the key to success and correctly remembered the up-to-date roster of riders currently enrolled.

Davi couldn't decide if patting Marvin on the back would get him fired or not. Blinders in FULL AFFECT.

James enjoyed pre retirement. So much so he's carrying the weight to do well in his face, not on his shoulders. He was able to realize a lot of things with the time off, one thing being DC was a better fit than Nike, no pun intended.

Ryan admits RedBull is no longer the breakfast of champions and reveals he will be running Dark Rinse Denim at A1. Laughing his way to the bank because WHEATIES!!!

Bogle is still struggling with Aphonia and kept his responses at a minimum in order to keep his voice from totally disappearing. If it wasn't for LaRocco, "Swag" would be Bogle's only response. Think Marshawn Lynch.

Barcia has switched up his training to "dry dirt" and is now telling Coach, "I told you so" Was it just me or was The Delicious One spotted in Justin's tee pocket?

Marv.. Well, Keefer is taking loads of shit from the Vitards while Mathilde is giving instruction to Davi and Bogle on how to consol a distraught human being. She told Pourcel to carry the stress himself and is now making Marv a crepe of his choice. Blowjob to follow. What a woman!

I'm predicting a ktm/husky sweep on the podium in at least one class. Those electric starts will be really nice in the mud.

Still no decals on the swing arm and front fender on the RCH bikes.

so many different suspensions systems, spring, air, kyb, showa, variables of each from team to team.

why aren't there more technical break downs and write ups of that stuff in mags and moto media !?

That was really good! Nice one.

Bogle's voice is genetic. Chiz's is a result of an injury.

tomac had that constant smile on his face when other riders were speaking. like he already knows that he will be better than ever and everybody has to step up their game to challenge him.

I feel like 94+KYB could equal a scary fast Ken Roczen.

I'm with you. I just think we are the minority.

Yeah I thought he seemed very confident as well, looks like he's more ready than some might have expected.

They might actually move this year with the extra 20lbs they will be supporting. Lol just kidding! But James defiantly doesn't look to be in race shape that's for sure. But his bike looks awesome.

We might be ok, I have a feeling we wont get a full practice day in though, which sucks for us fans, but hope the track is in good shape for the night show.

Here is the updated chart, that was from yesterday:

Rain not predicted till after midnight!!!



1/8/2016 10:00am
I really hope the rain holds off or rains minimally for race reasons, but I'm also taking my kids (7 yr old daughter and 5 yr old son) to their first ever SX. This is kinda a big deal for me and want them to enjoy it as much as possible! Can not WAIT for tomorrow...
