Congrats to Ezra and Buds.

I can't help but feel like some other guy's who have been paying their dues the last few years deserved the spot over Ezra. There is good money to be made at this race.

How about an outdoor national winner and top 5 SX finisher named Tedesco just to name a single one. While he'll probably end up with a ride once Canidae works out their team and move forward how about Tommy Hahn? Tim Ferry? Tyler Bowers, Broc Hepler, Troy Adam. If you want to throw in Lites guys who are just as capable that list more than triples. I love Lusk but there are plenty of current races without a job and know for a fact they still want to race next year.

You can't hate on Ezra for getting a deal worked out. It seems like a lot of guys are "waiting" to see what shakes out. Ezra apparently pulled the trigger. If those guys don't pull the trigger they aren't going to hit anything.

I have to agree with P here as much as that hurts!

Don't hate a guy for being better at networking. Some guys are just better at creating opportunities.

I'm not hatin on Lusk

Short
Tedesco
Hann
Lemoine
Blose
Albertson

The list goes on, Lusk even said it himself maybe he will race maybe he will play tennis,

All I'm saying is Lusk had his time and I feel other riders that are still trying to make a living deserve the spot at Bercy.

everybody is trying to make a living. You and I included. Difference is, when we think of the things we can make money at, unfortunately, racing moto isn't on the list. Lets let Lusk figure this deal out on his own. You have been around long enough to know his star shown brighter and burned out quicker then any of the aforementioned riders, save Tedesco. Let him give it another shot and be happy for second chances.

I would say good for Lusk! Right now EL has more of a buzz around him than any of the above riders and will get more publicity for his sponsors.

I dont think its about who deserves the ride, rather who Bud Kawasaki think its worth having as a rider. Lusk brings publicity and i guess that if you cant hire a rider that can win the next best thing is too hire a rider that gets publicity atleast. IMO thats why they hired DV12 this season.

Definetly worth bringing Lusk to Bercy over guys Albertson or troy Adams. Look at the buzz around him at US Open it will be the same in Bercy. They will go on about how he has battled with some of the best like the Mac and DV12 and non harcore mX people instantly recognise the names... Times are tough in France and then need to fill the seats so Lusk is good choice and probably didn't ask for too much in pay check. Guys like Shorty, Tedesco are expensive and the budget takes a big hit with Bubba!

BTW Tommy Hahn was the rider suppose to come but he doesn't have a ride officially or a practice bike so he had to bail out.

Go Yogi!!! And go Musquin!

"Lusk"................ "Yogi"

Come on! Those names alone standout and are remembered for a longtime.

Who says that none of these other guys were not given a chance. Many of these unsigned guys may not want to risk injury ala Jake Moss, no doubt he still has a great chance to sign with any team he was working with, but what if it had been a femur? Just a thought.

Good deal! I hope Yogi does well, I'd still like to see him lined up on a SX gate next season. At least, in Atlanta.
