We had Tim Ferry on our new show Winners Take Y'all and the conversation drifted towards today's tracks vs back in the day.  What say you guys?  Were the bikes more technical to ride (2 strokes) coupled with the tracks? 

Hear what he had to say here: https://www.vurbmoto.com/introducing-winners-take-yall-a-new-podcast-ho…

Do you guys think KTM will use more purple in their graphics for 2025?

I think that was his DMXS partner David Izer that You're thinking of.

Nope.  I do co-host with David Izer on DMXS so I'm guilty by association.  Listen if you want and you might laugh.

That was Izer, a friend of his. Izer is a pretty good dude so ease up on him.

You're not alone in not knowing him, yet still being into moto.  You just aren't into all the teenager drama that some try to pump into the sport, just like many others.

Kevin Kelly is about as core moto as you can get. Been around the sport his whole life. His father King Kelly was the promoter of the old Atlanta National at Six Flags Park. Through his association with LL he has rubbed elbows with alot of the riders in our sport. Good guy.

See that's where you're wrong.  Timmy said quite the opposite on the show which I thought was interesting.

Other than that thing with Deegan , I wouldn't say that he was known for drama. Unless there is  something I do not know about. The DMXS show that he and Kevin do is or was drama free . If you are a hardcore fan and have never listened to DMXS radio then you really should go back and listen to the archived shows. There are some really funny ones! And they have had just about everybody on their show at one point or another. Up until the past couple years , now its not on as consistently as it used to be and the shows are sometimes shorter. And  the recent ones have not had Kevin on them.  I guess you might say the style humor  could be more teenager  style . I never noticed and drama and was surprised to hear David going after Deegan like that since they always keep things very light hearted and are not as serious as most shows.

Kevin is not some teenage drama queen. He’s been around a long time and I believe he and Weege and maybe Izer started or was heavily involved with Practice Track newspaper on the East coast BITD before Weege got serious. Kevin is all about the fun and pay attention cause he’s got the wit and is an announcer at Loretta’s and other select events, i.e. RBSR. Had some fun convos with he and Weege at the hotel lobby bar after a Houston SX quite a few years back.
