I'll be watching for sure. Don't know about any streams, though.

It's probably going to be the Tucker Hibbert show again.

He's already got a huge points lead in the ISOC series despite the new "Tucker Rule", which I might add is complete BS.

He's already put up the fastest practice time at Aspen.

A snowbike race would be sick but I don't think they do too well on harder groomed snow type terrain. Look like a blast in powder, though.

Tucker Hibbert is still dominating? Holy shit! I don't really follow it closely at all but I just assumed someone new was up there now. That's amazing. What's the details on this tucker hibbert rule?

The rule calls for the top qualifier each day to get the last pick at the starting line for the final instead of the first pick.

Pretty simple, sandbag if the sanctioning body wants to be stupid.

Yeah, didn't they use this stupid rule in SX in the late 80s/early 90s? I remember seeing a Youtube video from Daytona relating to this

Didn't they do that in the mickey thompson series too? Forgive me if that's not accurate, I'm not sure if I was even born yet, haha

At least they try to keep sandbagging somewhat in control by giving points for qualifying.

From what I'm told, one of our local pro MX guys Kody Kamm was leading the series before a shoulder injury. Just what I heard from a friend. Don't give a rat's ass about snow machines so I don't follow along.

I don't suppose you are one of the guys that complains about Webb's "attitude"?

Tucker Hibbert wins 9th consecutive X-Games gold medal tying Jamie Bestwick for most ever. I also think he holds the record for both the youngest and oldest to win a gold medal.

Let's not forget that Tucker has also won a 250 SX heat race. So you could say he is a pretty bad dude.

I could be mistaken, but I think he qualified for Millville this past summer, am I right? His rookie year in mx was 03 or 04. That's a pretty good career!

I just want to give a quick shoutout to my mx riding partner Corin Todd on his bronze in snocross yesterday. Tucker was on another level, of course, but Corin redeemed himself from a 9th last year in the final so it was a big moment for him!
