I do hope he gets another number one plate.


Roczen outdoors 2016?
Stewart?
Others??
Anderson hasn't even won a single race since left. To be fair AC didn't win with Aldon really but would he of done better, we will never know.

What about Colleen Millsaps or Jeannie Carmichael?
"Can the riders that have “bakers factory championships” win without him?? Sure and most of them have before they joined him."
Correct. However, I believe only 1 has won a title after leaving his program. Kenny 2016.
Carmichael - Left in 2007. Retired.
Stewart - Left in 2010. Never won another title.
Villopoto - Left in 2015 to attempt GP’s to fulfill his contract, wanted to retire at the end of 2014.
Roczen - Left in 2015. Won 2016 Outdoors.
Dungey - Left in 2017. Retired.
Anderson- left in 2020 (?) and never was the same.
Osborne - Left in 2021. Retired.
Webb - Left in 2021..we’ll see….
So really there are only three guys Aldon won championships with that left and kept racing. Ken won a title, Stew didn’t. But you could chalk stews struggles up to that 2010-2012 Yamaha. With Anderson, does anyone think he wins another title even if he stays?
I think the more glaring issue above is the amount of people he’s burned out into early retirement
You could tell by his demeanor on the podium at Las Vegas that year
He was mentally/physically spent
That’s why he’s all about the “ fun” now
Concerning burnout, that's why Webb left. He didn't want to burnout at the age he's at and felt if he continued with Aldon that's the road he was heading toward. He's like 25/26 and maybe he wants to race until he's in his early 30's. You can't fault him for that.
I don't think Aldon's program is designed to be sustainable long term, but it gets the best out of the riders. Look what it did for Webb. No denying that he stepped it up big time once he went to that program. He even admitted himself that he thought he was in shape, until he went to Aldon's and found out it wasn't really the case.
Only time will tell if he can continue winning titles.
We shall see how Coop does this year. I don’t think it will be an end all be all concerning Aldon tho, he’s got the record
He won titles on the 250, moved up and didn't look the same. Went to Aldon's and stepped it up.
