I'll never understand how these guys can go this fast in the rain when you can't see shit. 

When I ride at my moto track in the rain my goggles get beaded up with water, can’t see, gotta pull the goggles, then I’m squinting over the jumps as rain hits my eyes.


These guys are animals.

Ironically the simple track design last week made for some of the best racing this year. This track is boring.

Looks like 450 Moto 2 is going to have to save us again.

Macadoo is close enough to Kitchen to catch up and take both of them out again.

On Gypsy Tales he said he was going to buy one if he won the 2024 SX title. Not sure if he has bought one since then.

I said that, then TV starts to focus on him and he starts riding better.

It was Southwick, so mid-July. He’s definitely not riding like he’s capable of.

The way it is looking, SMX will have more rounds than WSX so maybe it really is a world championship.

Ok. I was thinking it was at round 2 for some reason.

Good to see Kitchen grow up and stop finishing in the teens like he used to.

Sprinkles have turned into drizzle. I think we might be clear for the 450 race.

Good on Kitch & PC to finally get one done, even if it is the gimmick championship. Hopefully Levi can use the confidence from this one to finally put it together in one of the championships that matter next season.

Levi looks a little bit like Hannah Hodges up there. Is there a Motocrossed reboot in the making?
