Coker is in charge of all dirtbike racing in America at triumph, he was just the 450 manager at star

Good for him, he deserves it. He rides with a lot of heart, doesn’t give up and is getting better all the time. Triumph made a good choice.

He seems really nice and hasn’t reached his potential yet. Wonder why there are acoustic absorbers on the wall?

Looks like a big, empty room.  If they use it for their  conference calls or meetings, they probably just don’t want it to be so echoey.

I assumed it was a smaller office with desk there. Makes sense.

Jalek is an entitled douche. When he has a fill in practice mechanic he refuses to pay them. Hence why nobody wants to fill in to be his practice mechanic anymore. He just expects top tier treatment then he refuses to even pay the people helping him out. Not to mention when he was interviewed on pulp he was completely tuned out and playing videos games (you could hear the joysticks) giving one word answers to the questions Steve had. I have zero respect for this entitled little prick.

I don't get the hype with this kid. This is his 6th year as a pro in the 250 class and has 3 combined podiums between sx and mx. 1 outdoor overall win..

Where do you know this from? It sounds like you’re building him up to be this character that he’s not, with the adversity he’s been through I wouldn’t call Jalek entitled at all

"Fill in practice mechanic" sounds like a highly sought-after position

Comparing him to Forkner and Cam might be a bit of a stretch.

Quoting your own post to whine about downvotes. Cmon man, it's Vital. Fuck em. He's always have off d-bag vibes in his interviews to me. Obviously don't know him personally, just a feeling
