I think Barcia will come to life on the Austrian brand, I can't wait to see him bouncing the rev limiter on the Gas Gas. The Austrian bike may suit his style better than the Japanese. I'm curious how he would do on the three fifty too? I might even go buy a Gas Gas, Awesome!

Interesting choice in trainers.
Never knew that.

Hows that going to work with aldon?
Aldon is an option not a requirement....

I like how they said they just called roger up and he spilled the beans. Didn’t know it was that easy! Why didn’t they call him sooner!

It'll be interesting to see if Barcia has to dump his A-Stars & Shoei gear deals for the TLD deal. Seems like most other teams at least their 450 guys have their own gear contracts...but TLD has always had their guys dress alike, like PC. I think somebody here speculated that the A-Star deal Barcia has might be over $750K.
He will have to dump them for TLD gear. Supposedly closing that money gap was part of the deal.

Looks like MXA edited their story a little bit since it was originally posted... Never change MXA Grinning

I think he's only really addressing the word "sketchy". Otherwise, nothing else suggests the GG deal isn't done.

I’d really enjoy MXA being right and doing some actual reporting while the rest of the industry complains about their integrity

It means Barcia used a lot of words and didn’t say anything.

So if it’s true, who is going to be the third 450 rider for star racing, that is if there even going to have a three rider team.

WTF is wrong with mxa, talking about an agent by name who reports a rider signing before a release and said a team acted shady. I'm sure IF he did say that, he wanted that to get reported to the whole mx community (sarcasm).

I think he was probably referring to the comment the trainer made about Star being sketchy.

MXA must of got some heat because they did some heavy edits of the original post, edited out the name of the trainer, and mentioned that they spoke to Barcia after the article was posted.

I have no problems with MXA, loved it as a kid, and still do because it's a good magazine with good content, but I hope they are not misreporting here.

Anyone know when the gasgas’ will be available for sale? 21 seems unlikely as the 21 ktms are already arriving with no real press releases of the gasgas?

You realize it’s a TLD team, right? Of course he’ll be in the gear!

Remember when RC told MXA to never mention him in their mag again? I think the Southwick 05 or 06 press conference.

They’re a joke

Which means he has a few more races to finish up before talking about joining another team publicly.
