Cole Davies Back for Unadilla & Caden Dudney to Make Pro Debut

Hopefully people lower their expectations of Cole for these two rounds, just getting some gate drops is a huge win, I expect him to come out swinging for SMX

Great news. 

And I agree, just do the motos, ease back into race shape for the three money rounds.

After I read this, the next story down was,

Daniel Blair's son crashed and broke his femur.

Not so great news.

Man it would be so bad ass if Cole could get some good laps in the next two rounds and then win the SMX championship. I know I'm probably dreaming but he was so damn good in SX and always improving. 

Caden Dudney is the real deal. Getting to ride the same track at the same time with him was mind blowing. He could top 10 if his fitness is good enough. 

I’ve been fortunate enough to ride with some amazing fast guys(Levi Kitchen, Gavin Towers, Kdub) but Caden was the most impressive in person to watch. 

Lets go CFD!!!

Excited to see how he does and happy he is back, just love watching the kid ride

deegs will try to hit him just to remind him not to get too sporty(tm). stamp it. 

The boy i believe is on a similar talent level to Jett.

I dont expect him to win but it wouldn't surprise me if did a top 3.

Hey now, did you skip over Rotaholic’s post?! 🤣

Cole has similar form to Jett because he learnt the important fundamentals from the same guy, someone who used to post here until recently. Another valuable moto community member run off from the forum by vitards who know better.

There are so many guys about who I read "The racing's so much better when he's in it" who regularly get spanked.

Regarding Cole Davies, the saying is actually true.

Is this is Davies pro motocross debut?

He just posted yesterday

Gonna pick both Cole and Kenny up in fantasy, even though Kenny is a little over-priced (in my opinion).

I'm a little bummed on Davie's results, I thought he'd be closer to top 10.  But he came out healthy and I bet we see another step forward next weekend. 

I wouldn't read too much into it. He's never raced an AMA National before. Not even one before going back to race LL, like a lot of these kids do now. A true actual pro debut. The intensity of the pro class for 35min straight shocks everyone that first time. Drew Adams had him covered pretty well at LL last year and he hasn't exactly set the world on fire this summer. And top it off with him just coming off the couch. 

It was his pro debut outdoors. Anyone who expected a top 10 was being unrealistic.  He'll use the last two Nats to get his feet wet and come out swinging in 26. 

Damn, Caden looked good out there in both Moto's....

Davies 26th place at Unadilla. That’s a bit lower than anybody expected. I don’t expect him to do anything this year. Maybe next year if he stays healthy he can mix it up with Ju Ju, Dudney and Adams for Podiums.

Greg is a good guy.  Didn't know he was run off.
