a little off topic....but does anyone else notice that a ton of top pros, during the off season when they are between gear deals or whatever, always wear Fox stuff? I remember J law was after he left YOT and before they formed his team. I saw Langston at the track a few weeks ago and he is no longer in O'Neal and was rocking Fox.

a little random but after seeing these photos it's just something weird i've noticed more than once.

Duly noted Gibby

but in all the footage i've seen over the last month or two, Pourcel has also been wearing Fox gear while riding a PC supplied Kawi 450 back home in Florida Wink

I think it's Windham in Pourcel livery, just to mess with everyone.

Other than their one-off retro gear that the pros get to wear once per year, that's the best looking FOX gear I've seen in 10 yrs. Kinda reminds of Reeds SHIFT stuff. Very slick!

You mean in a big country like the US they could not find someone worthy of a factory ride. They had to go to France and pry some guy away from siping wine and eating cheese to try to win a championship . Hmmmm.

My guess would be that Honda is waiting on an answer from KDub and that will dictate where CP goes, but thats just my opinion. Reed might play into things as well.

Why? He has no ride from geico, SX only. Its a free bike. Its up to KW to go outdoors on factory honda or do nothing.

You mean in a big country like Canada you can't find some ice fishing to do or go drink some beer or play hockey, Instead you have to come on here and bash a guy for being fast on a dirt bike?

Pourcel is pretty finiky, so he's probably just trying the bike out, and may not sign. I know, Debby Downer.

Is CP able to train again or is his fitness going to be an issue again this season?

I may be confused on this but I thought Pourcel was injured again, or is it his brother that is?

From what I understood he found some really good diet that helps his stomach issues.

Looks like someone couldnt take a timeout like a man and had to make another account.
