He looks much fitter than he has in the past few years. The Fox gear looks very good combined with that bike.

Im confused.

A couple of weeks ago, Ricky told Steve Matthes that he had not been in talks with anyone, but he would listen if he was approached.

Did all of this just happen in that time since RC was on the Pulp MX show, or was he telling a white lie to Matthes?

Regardless, the fact that he can go without riding for a long time and then get back on and and go so fast is mind blowing. I wish I had one percent of that guys talent...

I wonder if the popularity of the KX450 with the older crowd has anything to do with it?

He’s not an ambassador for anyone...PC just built him a bike...that’s it, nothing more

He took down my hero. I HATED him with a passion. Then Reedy gave him fits. I LOVED every minute of it. When he and TP came together both times that year I cherished the loudest boos I ever heard. So loud at that Anaheim round that he could not even be heard speaking on the podium.

Then when he started racing the one offs is AUS X etc, I began cheering for him. Today I have grown to LOVE his commentating. Dude has done so much it is incredible. He and Reedy ought to start an SX team.

It likely wasn’t a done deal and he wasn’t allowed to say anything

Exactly what I was thinking. Plus, had Forkner not gotten hurt and completed both series, they very well could've been adding two more #1 plates this year. I know purely speculative, but he is good enough for it to be a very real possibility.

Terrafirma vibes from some of those opening whip shots. Timeless style and colour combo.

This works!
Now Jeremy needs to give his bike to RV and get Dungeys Honda, Dunge needs to go get Seeleys KTM and send seeley to the Supreme store and then maybe everything is restored.. Chad can take RVs Yamaha..

So glad he gave up moto and not riding anymore due to the concern of injuries in his old age.
God given talent for sure... RC looks fit and definitely looks like he has thrown his leg over a bike in the last few months. Great for him. The sport needs him without a doubt! No matter the brand he is throwing around!

I like how Dungey is sitting on the track watching in awe and hoping he can be like them some day.

167 was his #, also ran it at the last national in 96. Earned #70 he rides the 450 with same aggression as the 125 days, crazy fast corner speed. You watch Mitch talk Ricky into racing Millville in 21, the same race as his last national. November RC turns 40 or 41, the body can last The national motos yet. Dowd proved it.

Great clip thanks for posting!!

Man Reed looked great on the Zuki. Outdoors season that year, as crazy as it was with budget cuts to the teams... he made it a lot of fun to watch. First time I ever seen in my area a pro rider sale bikes or that I noticed. Yellow bikes were no existent until then.

RC4, make motocross great again 2021!!

But on a serious note, how cool would it be to see a 259 bike also made. Both are hands down the greatest of all time for Mitch.

259 wasn’t a PC guy, he was factory.
