Also, you have to wonder if he is getting or will get burned out with Baker's training regimen. We've seen it in the past.
There is a reason why we don't get to see many Americans in the world championship and that is simple.
They don't have the time to prove themselves over the course of their amateur careers in Europe which potentially is holding offers back for up and coming riders that do not have a contract set for their Pro debut in the states.
In case they have a very good rider like Adam or Austin they are often already contracted to stream true in the big teams from a very young age between 12-14years max.
Let us say that in order to be successful in Europe you should be used to the GP tracks before you become a pro at 18 years of age preferably.
Thus they would need to ride the EMX championship, less pressure more time to adjust learn quicker because kids learn quicker. Kids that are 16 or younger need to make a huge leap into a world they have never been before adjust to tracks, food, life in general really. Often without parents not knowing if they will succeed and make a decent living.
It has been done before yes but it's highly unlikely for a kid to travel the world on a bag of iff's.
Riders that have been successful in the states before they go to europe, They are on there way out and have made a name for themselves and they get a factory ride straight up and a good pay check. All good but these riders come to sniff the atmosphere and travel the world on a other mans budget it's that simple. AKA they're doing it for there sponsors and finish their career.
The most important reason of them al. PRO ATHLETES that are on the top of their game make MORE MONEY in the USA

Since baseball season is only 10 months of the year, so it's $3.2M per month
But preseason doesn't really matter so really it's only april - october so 7 months at $4.57M per month or $152,380 per day.
Though really only the 162 games during that 7 months really matter, so it's more like $197,531 per game.
And since, according to the WSJ, baseball players spend 90% of game standing around, and each game averages 2:55, that's $11,287 per minute of actual work, or $677,249 an hour. Just a little more than you or I make huh?
Also went 1-1, 1-1.
dunge will have a hard time beating Tomac this summer and if he does, he's beaten the best.
The best come here
As for Dungey, I don't think he's done quite yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if he calls it a career after 2018.
It's just mind boggling.
Meanwhile Dungey has been dropped by a GP rider on average by 46 seconds in the last six.
Amazing how easy it is to twist facts to suit an agenda eh?
RV: "just chillin down here in the Caymans, spinnin banana daiquiris for the tourists on the beach and renting out jet skis, gonna take a nap in a couple hours"
Dungey: "...................
I seriously have no idea what more he wants to accomplish. He's practically won everything. All he has left to go after are records and I don't see him racing in his 30's to beat the all time main event starts. He is consistent so how far of a reach is the all time amount of podiums? I believe he's already at 92 to Chad's 131 or whatever. I don't think he's in it for the records either.
Does anyone but him know what he means by wanting to accomplish more? MXGP Title?
Anyways yea Tomac was a 250 rider when he went to the MXDN and I think he realed in the 450 world champ on a 250 in Germany before he crashed

"To finish first, first you have to finish."
The best rider of the race is the one that crosses the line first, if you're pushing so hard you can't finish the race then you don't win.
