The AMA has envisioned a scenario of European dominance beginning this year and continuing into the future,therefor a meager showing can be attributed to lack of top riders due to being in the comeback business rather than lack of real world level talent. ... more »

You had a MxDN in your backyard at Glen Helen... No shows , fear and lack of confidence speak volumes, step up or spectate

You don't seem to grasp the concept that there is a world outside the US borders which the US riders never cross. The GP riders may have a license in a country they hold citizenship in but have not lived in for years, they probably have a house in a ... more »

The MxDN is just a over-rated motocross all star race which means nothing to the GP riders as they have ridden against each other weekly from the 80cc to today. They only put on a different set of riding garments and put on a show, the Americans don't ... more »

Joel Roelants in the MX2 is a viable choice also

Strijbos is hitting his stride after his injuries and deDyker is a monster when inspired as in a MxDN..But Ken has a right to tell them to stick it becuase of his treatment last year

I agree..Bubba and RV are the fastest non-racing spectators in the world...they will be untouchable in their anticipated return to riding in the future

It was a long way to travel for most of them and they had everything to lose and nothing to gain but self respect and the chance to see if they measured up, they all declined the invitation. The comfort zone would of been invaded.

Bubba needs to talk with his accountant a little more, There's more money to be made in a come back soon career than in a" washed out has been no fire pretentious mega star excuses galore career". Go peaceful and with respect....

Chumps live in the ignorant bliss of denial and false hopes. As Dr Suess would say" Don;t cry because it's over..just be happy because it happened!"

Dungey could turn in some solid top 10 finishes on some of the easier tracks over here, he's welcome anytime he wants to step up.

Clement deserves every ounce of fame he gets, he worked his way up, not a Ken or Jeffrey who gets unlimited attention right from the begining. I still feel as though Clement wasted 2007/2008 by going the bare bones budget privateer route but, there was ... more »

He should of just settled into the history books and remained the dreams and hopes of the Americans as the " Best rider there ever was". He could of pulled off a season or two more with the rumor mill grinding out his return to racing and he would be ... more »

With the variety of European track conditions in the GP Circus any US track would be mild and very Euro friendly.

Intelligence is overrated

It`s thier job, what`s the big deal? " Mechanics fix bike they are paid to fix!!"

It`s the old East Germany, but they still have Holstein Pils...that`s trouble.....

Pourcel and Tyla are laughing all the way to the bank...hehe .silly girlie Americans giving us this easy money and fame,
