First...Congrats to Justin at his 1st 'Pro' race and his 1st GP. Solid results and a great base to move forward from..
Contrary however to so many other posts, Justin rides more then most AMA pros..in other words: a lot!.This is the culmination of a lot months of hard work and a new found focus..'NOT' oh..I just got on the bike and decided to train a couple weeks for this. Congrats as well to Carey Scherer from Grindstone and her months of hard work to help get him ready.It would be nice if some of these 'contributors would get the Get the freakn' facts right before blowing up peoples skirts...... it misleads everyone and truly does a disservice to the work this takes!

"More than most AMA pros" - come on. Stop it.

Congrats Justin on your first real pro race.

Your not gonna start selling "Believe the hype" shirts are you. I think they were just general statements.

Can we stop with initials+# threads/pathetic nickname attempts?

It's not nicknames, it's easier to type on your phone instead of their whole names. Are you really thinking people are putting initials and numbers to give riders new nicknames? Do you still have a pager bro. Go ahead and tell me about David Philipaerts #19, or would you rather type DP19.

Well he's got a point tho. I read the title and immediately thought WTF Herlings changed his #?

Not that hard to type a riders last name.....

I think the initials+ number only works if we are familiar with the rider. Example: RD5 or CW17.

In this case, I don't know who you're taking about and too lazy to look it up.

They mentioned him in the mxgp broadcast. OP is upset they didn't go into more detail about the 10th place rider out of 22, at his first pro race, as an American in a world series, racing the last race of the year, in a series he doesn't compete in. You know, hell with those title contenders and full series racers.

Who was blowing what up whose skirt? Justin has been riding a lot recently, and putting in the work. But the last couple years he has spent a lot of time off of the bike compared to "most AMA pros". Their is no disservice to the work, facts are Justin has a huge amount of talent and was able to rely on that. He now has his head on straight and his heart in the right place, and with the help of Cari and the being surrounded by the group at grindstone, things are looking up. His attitude at the race and the heart he showed for the actual amount of time he has truly been back on the bike in a serious sense was awesome. Was glad to see him sitting on the line realising that all those hopes and dreams for so many years were materializing. I think he did great and can't wait to watch him grow in positive environment and continue to progress into the rider that I know he can be.
