How bout some props to those two guys, i was at dilla and both metty and Mx panda were rippin. Guess since they don t have any drama or distractions they don t get much press. I say great rides from both, all business, no BS and two of the nicest dudes you can meet! Metty deserves a factory bike in 2011 and i would love to see Desalle do the whole series next year!

Both were awesome...everybody knows Desalle is a badass... but he's a Euro so we have to bag on him a bit... All in fun. We all knows what's up, especially after last week. More impressive was CP in that 2nd moto, damn...

The little bit of coverage they gave Metty.......showed that he is an animal on the 450! I really , really dig his riding style and aggressiveness !



I know he really likes the Geico / Honda team.....but i'm really hoping he lands a full factory ride next season.....he deserves it!



And CD....WOW! I was impressed by his riding as well. The guy hung tough and is fun to watch! Seems to be in great shape to...didn't look like he faded in the strength dept at all !

I have to agree with you there. You could see at the Unadilla press conference when Metty talked about the Des Nations he thought he should be the MX1 rider this year. He said MX1 or MX3 didn't matter but it seemed to me he was just saying what he thought the right thing to say was. I think next year you'll see Metty being the Aussie team captain.

I'm very curious to see how he's going to do in SX on the foo fiddy.

"So, Chad. What's this I hear about you retiring?"

Metty's success on the 450 shows he should have moved up a couple of years ago.

It also shows just how fast the 250 class is when a rider can move up and be as competitive as he is this year having never won a title on the little bikes after so many years trying.

Here's hoping he has more success on the 450.
