So how does this change the sport?
Damn buddy, you're slower than I am. Matthes tweeted this to his peeps who were in on an ongoing joke. Someone re- posted it here and some of us (me)... mistakenly thought it was serious and basically lost our minds.

Steve did absolutely nothing wrong. And to be fair, as a big fan of Troll...it is pretty big news...but it's not like he found out the Lawrence bros are actually aliensSilly

Not sure where I said he did anything wrong, just asked a question. Didn’t need you to type out a Harry Potter length novel about it telling me nothing I didn’t already know. But thanks anyways, I guess🤷🏻‍♂️

I wish these riders would stop using the word retirement to say they are stepping away from racing. Retirement suggests there is at least some level of finality to the act, when we see the majority of these guys resume competing again at some point down the road. Troll will probably end up on a 250 in WSX.

Interesting. A Mart admitted that he is too small for a 450 but wanted to give it a try but also at the same time admitted that riding the 450 is why he is retiring. Seems like he could just keep racing a 250 in the 450 class. Guessing that his results would be nearly the same but with more comfort of not getting yanked around by a 450. 5’4” 140# forced to move up…
