I'm surprised more people aren't talking about how aggro Ryan was yesterday. He jumped over top of a few guys at LaRoccos Leap one of them being Anderson when JA only doubled. It looked like Anderson was trying to throw a block in there so neither could jump it and Dunge just sent it. Most times you would thing that Ryan would just say, "You got me here, I'll just grind you into a pulp the rest of the track." He also had a couple times the bike was all over the place on him. Dungey is usually so calculating and controlled it was cool to see him letting it hang out and taking some risks. I'm loving having him back in the series.

I’d be good sending Dungey to represent our country at the MXoN this year if he wants to go.

The new, coffee-fueled RD rides with more aggression and urgency than the old non-caffeinated RD.

It is noticeable.

I felt like it was just a case of, because the corner before the leap is so wide, if you chose to go outside then you were already committed to the triple. Otherwise you might as well just protect the inside.

The wide corner before the leap definitely makes for interesting racing.

I think it was Chase that passed guys going inside and preventing both from making the leap two laps in a row.

Agree RD5 was sending it. A few times he blew the corner but just held it open and cleared it perfect. We where all hollerin for those few laps. It was great, some good saves too. Ryan sendy. I like it!

Ryan Sendy has a nice ring to it… 🔔 👌🏼 He’s definitely been at Full Send! He was even getting a little squirrely on those first few laps jocking for position. He’s been picking up the
pace & keeping it at full send all 30min +2. I hope we see him back another season.

Couldn't believe his LaRocco Leaps yesterday.

Dungey being back is definitely one of the highlights of this season along with some great racing all around. Too bad the broadcast is a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong.

How about Dungey on the 250 for MXdN? Why not, it's only 15 years ago!

I wonder if this will be a one year comeback or will he line up again in 23 if KTM gives him the opportunity. That would be awesome!

He was going for it. He shook his head at the finish line in disbelief. As to say 5th are you kidding me?

I wonder if he gets impatient right now and maybe expects more out of himself after the unreal performance at Pala and specially at High Point. Anyway I think what he is doing is awesome and I hope he can get a podium soon, just needs a good start!

By the way we have seen riders taking that line away from the inside before Larocco's Leap multiple times, but was there any rider who jumped it from the inside saturday? I mean I don't think so but there is always that one crazy guy..

Whoa! Made me nervous a couple of times. Never seen the Dunge on edge like that. Hope he was doing it for the reason of re calibrating pace. I look forward to next week.

I am more surprised, how many people can’t spell out aggressive or say aggressive?

Rather than trying to be superior and think I can't spell aggressive you would have been better off insulting me for an actual spelling mistake.

I typed: "Most times you would thing that Ryan would just say........." rather than typing: "Most times you would think that Ryan would just say................"


I give you an A for effort but a D- for execution.

Dungey obviously had a little bit more pace in his prime (not to say he isn't improving week by week), but I don't think I've ever enjoyed watching him race as much as I am now.

I remember thinking the -only- way The Diesel gets in and stays in the fight this year is if…IF…he’s willing to…

Hang It Out.

And he has delivered. He’s hanging it out in a way that I’ve never seen him willing to do “back in the day”. And that is pretty damn awesome.

Also, he’s the most “consistent” guy out there. Go look it up: 4th thru 7th in every Moto so far this year.

He seems to be getting faster and more “driven” to get in the fight that’s going on up front…
And stay there.
And “finish” there.
Podiums are in his future.

I’m digging Dungey rev. II

I'd venture a guess that the top three or maybe top five today are running a faster pace than when Ryan won his last title. I think Ryan has some rough spots yet to smooth out, but I think he is running a faster pace now, than he ever has.

I'm willing to be proven wrong though...
