love his style, everything he does on a bike is geared to go fast.
I hope they can figure something out so everyone can watch it on demand.

Had the pleasure to watch him ride at a local track on Tuesday. Such an impressive style and clearly can still do damage on an SX track. His continued presence and his approachability is awesome. The pits at the track always buzz with him around, even if it is becoming a regular occurrence.

Thanks Ryan!

Thanks Ryan!
That family (among many others, and individuals) has definitely done a lot for the riding community up in this neck of the woods. Very glad to see it grow.

Have you made it up to his wife's coffee shop up in silverdale yet? Stopped in a couple weeks back, he was there hanging out, and he actually came up, introdiced himself, and chatted with me briefly while the car in front was getting taken care of. Pretty cool cat for sure

Reed, Webb, Hahn, Brayton, and Reardon are some of the other notable riders.

Haven't made it to the coffee shop as I'm never up that way. If I can remember, I'll be sure to look them up when I'm next in the area. Coffee any good?

Should be good, I remember Brayton running with RV for 20 laps (Phoenix sx '14 I think?) I think I'll put my money on Cooper for this event. Stoked to see RV get out there again

Great news for Aussie fans. He looks fit, did not let himself go like a lot of people said when he retired. Good for him. He deserves to do whatever he wants.

IDK man Cooper is finally on the 450 full time and full of piss and vinegar, confidence, and general cocky attitude means he's going to be a bad mofo IMO. Hopefully stays safe.

I'm talking about RV lining up in Australia mate! Here in the USA, he will not be doing any stomping.

His starts and short man syndrome are going to hurt him if he does not change his ways...

You could be onto something. Not sure how it exactly works but couldn't the promoter make a payment to show up to certain events ,it might draw bigger crowds to those races and allow guys towards retirement a way to do some racing and not get burned out by the grind.
