About Me
What can I say? I love dirtbikes! Actually, I love anything with wheels or an engine. You can either find me in the pits constantly staring at every part on a factory team's bike, or up at 4 A.M. watching Formula 1 and the World GPs. During normal hours, I'm behind a desk here at Vital MX smashing my fingers into the keyboard, or out at the track testing new bikes and parts (check out our reviews! Shameless plug...).

If you have any ideas or things you'd like to see on the site, product or bike related, or if you want to give me an award for my duties (or yell at me for incompetence), message me anytime!

This has been floating around since about 2/3 of the way through Supercross. If it does happen, I’d have to guess it won’t be until 2028. No one is really available for next season.

100% he isnt listening to the comments (what some consider advice), but he does read the forum.

Temmerman was testing with PC yesterday, good chance he's on the bike this weekend. Drew Adams was also testing and is trying to come back this weekend. McAdoo isn't coming back for a while.

Yeah, when I use my 82mm threaded lenses, I use variable NDs and follow the shutter-to-frame-rate rule. With the 100-300, I haven't invested in an ND yet. I'm a photographer 90% of the time, and video less than 10%. Like today I was shooting at 100 ISO, around 250-300 shutter, and F7.1.

Yeah, I shoot video through the viewfinder on my R1 with a 100-300 like I’m hspoting photos. I’m a terrible video guy on a tripod or handheld style video. Photographer at heart, not a video guy. 😂 Some of the stuff of their bikes and them talking is with a 24-105.
