Old Mate- what are their bike numbers? There were several guys hauling with no numbers on their bikes, but I couldn't tell who they were- let me know team & bike & I'll look through the photos. To those that enjoyed the shots, thanks & you're welcome!

Thanks heaps, his best was a 113.9, looks like he is practicing the shorter line with the front wheel out of ruts dragging the front brake, looks like he messed the first one,more attack required from that outside shoulder,lol,last one is nearly there but, Allessi smoked early last year with this technique.

Matt#49, I would love to be there, but just feeding and housing the rest of the family is a job, i said to my boys when young, it will take everything to get to AMA but if you want it you we will have to sacrifice, so we went on the road coaching most weekends, i stayed with club guests and they stayed with everyone from Priests to bikie gang members,Animal activists to hunters so they would be comfortable with whoever they met when they made it, Jake left for the USA at 18, i said ring this number from LA airport, some dude will pick you up and you can live with him, Jake"do you know him dad" No Jake "ok cool" see you at the end of the year. I get my first trip over for Redbud and Colorada, cant wait,

After a few of his races last year, I kinda can't believe Jake didn't end up on a 450...

I'm pretty sure he's racing a 450 for the outdoors. On the same team though.

Great to hear that.. Jake's always seemed to fit better and go faster on the fooo fiddy. Jake went from a top 10 guy on the 250 last year to a podium guy on the 450 and almost won a moto at Steel City. Based on that is why I say he needs to be on the 450.
I've been watching those kids for years while following the Aussie SuperX and Aussie Nats and it seemed to me like Jake was always a step ahead of Matt til here recently. It seemed like once Jake left for the states Matt turned it up big time. I've been really wanting to watch Matt all year on that factory Zooker. If Matt picks up where he left off before the injury that kid is going to get the job done. I can't imagine what it would be like for Old Mate if he had his twin boys on a ama 450 podium at the same time.

Question for old mate because I have twins. Was Jake the first born?

No Matt is 10 mins older, they have changed back and forth over the years for who is going a little better, there not quite ready for the weekend yet, Matt has the flu and is still working on setting up the 450 and Jake still has little use of his left hand and only probally only 20mins bike fit but hopefully injury free after the weekend they will biuld all season.
