Chad Reed announcemet

Edited Date/Time 1/27/2012 4:57pm
Chad Reed today announced he will be riding every round of the AMA Motorcross championship.

In his column, which will appear in ADB when it hits the stands on June 3, Reed said he was fit and keen to compete a full MX season.


"I'll be competing in the full season of the outdoors (AMA Motocross) championship in the USA, starting at Glen Helen at the end of May," he said. "It's an exciting time for me and the team at Rockstar Makita Suzuki.


"In previous seasons I have been so focused on Supercross that there’s been little chance to race AMA motocross other than the odd one-off event here and there. I discussed the possibility with the team and they backed my intentions 100 percent of the way.


"I'm race fit, I've got pace on the bike and even though I know there is some tough competition, I can't wait to get started."

We have DC and MX sports to thank for this, as you'll see by the Larry Brooks post in another topic here at vital.

I would actually rather he stay home and we see good racing haha. But then again, whose to say he will run away with the MX, i don't think he would be quite as far ahead on terms of speed.

Chad just got another fan. That's awesome. I think RV and him will be a much closer battle than in SX.

RV, CR, MA...that's a real battle. Make no mistake. There may be tracks where one guy is faster than the others, but they will all be battling for this title. There's others that have stayed healthy and will be in there. Hopefully, Milsaps is on his game. Tedesco seems healthy. Shorty. Great season ahead!

Smile Smile Smile Smile

And, I hope James shows up. He's fast, but he cannot afford to start in 5th place with this crew.
