You will be leaving too many unanswered questions in Supercross if you leave.

no secret I am a fan of the twotwo, and i want to see him on the gate at A1. But i dont get the unanswered questions thing..He could walk away right now with nothing to prove. He went from a cocky, MC clone to a champion. We might ask" what if" but i doubt he would

are you serious?

retirement for Reed right now would be one of the smartest moves he's made.

move on to other and more interesting things; bigger and better.

Well if you think about it, he looked the best ever on suzuki. He rides with JT$ all the time, and the team is based out of Florida. I don't know maybe it would be a last resort but I think it would be a good fit and if Reed was on the team maybe Suzuki would kick down bikes and parts. It would be awesome too because CR could really stick to the teams that past him up with a great season that I know he is still capable of.

You have some valid points. But what happens when JT$ starts beating him?Wink

CR can go just as fast as any of them, he proved that last Daytona SX when he was fastest O/A qualifier

Reed should retire, too much on the line now, he is a Dad. Nick Wey should quit while he is ahead as well.

Wey is never leaving. What he has done in this sport is amazing. The dude has made a shit load of money in moto. His claim to fame in this sport is he has a hot wife. Go figure!!!

This sport will never see another guy like Wey. Maybe Metty, But thats it.

Why would anyone want him ( or anyone else) to just walk away? You people are ignorant! If people like reed and web walked away it would cut away at the depth of the field and what point would there be to follow mx anymore? Guess his one bad season was too much for some of you , guess js7 should walk away too.

How are Metty and Wey anything a like?

Wey top 5 guy when riders are out and he is on his game, top 10-15 guy at best otherwise, not that being a 10-15 guy is a bad thing, still freeking fast on anyones scale.

From what i have seen of wey in vids he is pretty out there doesnt mind talking it up and having some fun. Great rider to watch and from the limited amount of i have seen in vids of his personality pretty cool guy.

Metty on the other hand is a top 5 guy with everyone in and still getting faster, only 6 months in the big bike class where i am pretty sure he finished about 10 places ahead of wey in nearly every moto at a minimum.

Metty seems pretty quiet and a fair bit more introverted than Wey, actually couldnt think of two guys further apart both on and off the track.

Then again looking at your posts i would say an Aussie at some stage accidently ran over your dog! not fan of our brothers from down under?

Just like how Chad "pushed the limits" to win the outdoor championship last summer? Josh Hill has nothing for Chad Reed when both are at 100%. Stewy, RV, Dungey, Canard, Weimer, Pourcel, Short, Alessi? and Grant will all be contenders...But to say that Chad Reed is only riding for money and the championship is out of reach is a little harsh if you ask me. The guy just won a championship last year and had a kid, lost a best friend, and has been dealing with a gnarly illness.

2 of the 5 guys that you mentioned who will be "pushing the limits" have never won a championship on a big bike.. Chad has done that, and until he is retired I highly doubt he will be out there racing with any expectations short of winning every race he goes to.

You seem really bitter towards guys who get paid to ride.. I would be stoked to be in MX Reflex! Haha.
