Hey! How exactly is a rainbow made? How exactly does a sun set? How exactly does a posi-trac rear-end on a Plymouth work? It just does.

Rona. The cost of doing anything is way up and the return is way down. Unless you’re in the housing market.

Water is the leading cause of death. 100% of people that drink it also die

Think Covington made the right decision. Ultimately it sounded like the didn’t have the commitment/didn’t believe in himself to run with the top guys. Once that’s in your head, with the rough few years he’s had, it was the right move especially with some other opportunities heading his way.

Desalle, maybe just me but was expecting it sooner rather than later, he’s always spoken his mind and we know he isn’t a fan of luongo and the crap tracks they are forced to race on

As for the injuries, I would defiantly say jasikonis and herlings crashed because of corona, no other explanation for it...

LOL. Insurance companies are discounting premiums right now because nobody is driving meaning nobody is crashing. They are flush with cash.
Maybe Canadians don’t like Rockstar... I certainly don’t.
But ya, the injuries were probably COVID related Silly

I was talking of rona virus about rockstar, geico and that stuff, not about injuries.

The tracks the mxgp guys are racing are a big shit show and all of the riders agree, but none want to risk to lose their spot/end up like broc tikle...
Mx is a dangerous sport but make it more dangerous than what it is it's fucking stupid
Fuck beppe luongo👎🏻

I prefer the term quiting racing...very few actually can retire. The damn virus screwed most of us and in my case retirement depends on how good I am at choosing them lotto numbers.

Uh, no. Motocross -is not- "fucking up". In fact, professional racing promoters had their shit together and managed to "get'er done" while most other sports were still hiding.

Rockstar was purchased by Pepsi: What and How they market and promote the brand is changing. Period.
(Hell, even the logo is changing)Huh

Geico got themselves a New CEO and...again...What and How they market and promote the brand is changing. Period.

Riders RETIRE. It happens.

Herlings and Jasikonas getting hurt? Really? You're making a huge deal about that?
Have you watched, kept track of ride injuries & gotten familiar with the "attrition" of the average Supercross Season? Maybe a reminder of what KR has been thru? Marvin's knee and Cooper's lower-back...
Any of that ring a bell?
