gerg Liked a reply to forum topic Off weekend - Moto to MTB brakes?
6/29/2026 2:32am As far as I know it's standard in Australia to have the front brake on a pushy on the RHS, which is clearly the correct way. Just like we drive on the correct side of the road, our water goes down the drain rotating the correct way and we have cyclones which is the correct term for big fucking storm. We also use the metric system where 10mm = 1cm, 100cm = 1 meter, 1000 meters = 1km and so on and so forth...so when we reach for a spanner (correct term for wrench), we don't need to stand on...

1 hour ago I'll admit it. Totally enjoyed the clip. Simpler times.

6/27/2026 11:02pm Pulled the pin on this yesterday. Not had a 'new' bike of my own since 2003, everything since then has been an Evo rebuild, or something that my sponsor has had at the right money, while a raced his stuff which was way better than i could afford or justify. 2021 350 FS, with 4.7 hours on it. Perfect vet bike apparently, i guess i will find out tomorrow when the gate drops. It still has bar code stickers on some of the parts. Crazy clean. And with that, goes my dream of a Ducati. At 61, i think it...

6/26/2026 11:44pm Don't start your bike, rev the crap out of it, and click it into gear when it's on the rev limiter. Could we let the revs die down a bit? Far out.

6/26/2026 11:40pm No Armor-All on the seat. No WD40 on the brakes. No need to shake the gas can for minutes. Let wife’s panties fall out race pants at home, not at track. DON’T be like my buddy Chris and bring an opossum (unplanned) in your gear bag. DO be like Dave B and pick up a used Suzook in your airplane……

6/25/2026 3:02am About a month ago I went out on a whim and found a 2026 BETA 350RX within a 4 hour drive. I’ve been wanting a second bike and it be a 2-stroke. I don’t have a good handle on the bike yet as Mother Nature keeps raining on all scheduled open rides. So, I’ll just race the local Pro-Am this weekend and report back on how bad I got my ass kicked. 😂 I did the suspension through Race-Tech, full FMF exhaust, carb rejet, and a Rekluse clutch. 🤘

6/23/2026 1:43am See McGrath a fair bit about in Encinitas, Jimmy Button used to be about too but not seen him in forever. Used to see D Bailey around years ago when he was doing wheelchair triathlons and I was racing bicycles, he’d always chat about the old days. I also trained with Johnny O a bunch back then too. Funny story:- During the period I was training with Johnny he started to work with RC ( RC was on PC, his first year pro). One time RC was staying at Johnnys house and we were out on a training ride when...

6/23/2026 1:41am A few years ago, I'm at a restaurant in Annapolis called Zoe's. I go back to the soda fountain to re-fill my ice cold diet Coke. This tall dude in a flannel shirt goes up to the machine next to me. It's Travis Pastrana. We made quick eye contact and he knew that I knew, and I knew that he knew that I knew. I'm a pretty quick read of people and I could tell he didn't want me to go all fanboy on him, so we just did the bro nod and a smile to each other, and went...

6/23/2026 1:40am I was spending the afternoon at the Goat Ranch watching the army of Star riders practice. I was kicking back in a lawn chair under one of the buildings for shade - Carmichaels dad was sitting next to me... He just started talking to me like he knew me forever - I just rolled with the situation. Talked about everything from the Gator skeleton by the pond to jumping snakes that you would find in the grass. I think he thought I was Shane Bentley - not sure. While all this was happening Dylan Ferrandis had a giant Lynx Cat...

6/23/2026 1:39am In 1998 I was working in a bike shop in Davidson, NC, when this little dude comes in with a Yeti mountain bike that had Sue Fish's name on the top tube. I asked him where he got it and he said John Parker (Yeti Founder) is a friend of mine. I asked who he was and he said Kevin Atherton. He had stepped away from the dirt track circuit to get his shit together, and we did a bunch of riding and partying that summer. He told me he had some buddies that needed work done on their bikes...

6/23/2026 1:36am Not sure you can say he was out in the wild, but many years ago I would ride Underground MX outside Kemp, TX back when Regals bought the land and built the first track that was lower and closer to the shop and house than the existing one. This was even a year or so before he was racing privateer on a Honda and years before he was teammates with JS7 on the San Manuel Mission Indian Yamaha team. I would go on weekdays and be there usually 8:30 or so am. (Gets hot in TX). Many times I would...

6/23/2026 1:35am I saw Brandon Hartranft at Nobu in AC a few summers ago. It was after his accident — I was so stoked to see him out with his family, walking, and looking healthy. I anonymously sent a drink to his table. I didn’t want to bother him, but I wanted him to know that the moto community was pulling for his full recovery. He ended up figuring out who sent him the drink, and he and his wife came over to thank me. Then we welcomed his whole family to have a drink with us — they were really great...

6/23/2026 1:34am When I was younger, I worked at Yamaha of Cucamonga in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. Greg Schnell was a local guy and would come in to buy VP fuel from us every so often. He was always super cool and would hang out for a bit to talk with us about his racing stuff. He would also bring Cody Mackie in with him after he moved to the US from Australia. Cody was/is a super good dude who has gone on to have one hell of a career as a stuntman. Not moto related, but Eddie Lawson lived nearby and he...

6/23/2026 1:32am My daughter wanted a picture with Marvin so we walked over and he was more than happy, and signed a poster for her. Also we’ve hung out with Taka at the track and a while ago, I met up and rode with Twitch and his big group out in the hills. Including Tyler Bereman, Vickie Golden, Josh Hansen, Robbie Maddison, and a bunch of other freestyle dudes. All of them super cool. Also saw Jeremy McGrath at Dirty Fest racing bmx a couple weeks ago but I didn’t talk to him.

6/23/2026 1:29am In the early 90s, I was driving south down the hill where Camino Del Mar turns into North Torrey Pines Road in San Diego, and David Bailey & Jim Knob went absolutely flying by me in the bike lane in their race chairs.

6/23/2026 1:27am Nashville Supercross this year was in Morgan wallens bar and me and my buddy are at the bar buying a drink, my buddy goes why do i recognize that guy thats across the bar from us, I look it and its Jeremy McGrath, Jeremy noticed us talking and looking at him and knew we recognized him and he waved us over and we talked about the race that night. Dude is truly just a huge fan of the sport deal, after that was over I asked if he cared for a pic, was definitely really cool
