mikey Started a new thread Why JS7 Crashes Too Much?

12/10/2012 5:38am
I will try to make this post somewhat worthwhile. I am not anywhere nearly as fast, talented or prepared of a rider as JS7 so I can't speak from experience. Despite this I could be a more intelligent human being, I dunno. I was happy to read Ping's latest Ask Ping. He said the same thing I have been saying...

mikey Added a reply to When do people stop being "kids"?

4/21/2012 9:39pm
Obviously this question can be answered in a variety of ways and there is no one right answer. For myself, the answer is never. The older I get, the more I ride and more kid-like things I do. I will never change that.

mikey Started a new thread Most talented racer?

1/27/2012 7:44pm
RC I used to Windham, Lechien, Stewart, Bayle, Bailey, Huffman, McGrath etc. I dunno though, maybe talent isnt all smoothness and grace? How many times has RC saved a WFO swap through the "hoops" or got squirrely in one way or another? Too many to list. I guess the records and his inhuman consistency speak for themselves.

Do you plan on racing after your pro MX/SX career is over? For example, race some races as a privateer? Supermoto? GNCC? Enduro? Cars? Great ride in Daytona, that was the best SX I've watched in years!

mikey Started a new thread Privateer DV?

1/27/2012 4:15pm
I don't know how long you plan on racing professionally. You still have some speed and seem capable of doing even better than you are if everything falls into place (health, practice etc etc etc). However, have you ever thought about or wanted to do a full season as a "true privateer" maybe just doing selected races, international races, offroad...

What was your opinion of the Indy track design DV? As a fan it looked pretty good with some different line and rhythm sections etc.

mikey Started a new thread Injury recovery?

1/27/2012 1:37pm
Just curious if your thumb and knee injuries are supposed to heal fully without surgery? The thumb one seems to be lingering for awhile; its got to be hard to ride without full use of your thumb isn't it?

mikey Started a new thread DV12 to Florida or the southeast US?

1/26/2012 7:31pm
DV12, I am curious if you have considered or are considering moving to Florida or the southeast in general? I would say Florida has several advantages over So Cal, and some disadvantages. Advantages: no income tax more private cheaper land cheaper cost of living better dirt (in general) no smog many top riders nowadays (GOAT, Stewart, Reed, Ferry, Millsaps (ga)...

I've heard about hiim from some of the D15 vets. Was he really as talented and fast as they? Connie Feist, John Baker etc all say he used to be amazing.

How did you like the Atlanta track design DV? It looked like with the ruts, walls etc there were plenty of opportunities to make mistakes. Congrats on another top 10 ride, now on to the top 5? (with -1.5 sec per lap)?

mikey Started a new thread New Goon Riding Video?

1/26/2012 9:35am
Myself and the rest of the "hardcore" goon riding fans are going through withdrawal for an updated DV goon ride...any chance you could post a new one on http://www.dv12.com? I'm actually getting a little worried that Trey Canard is moving in on your goon territory with his panic revs and air wheelies in practice. Jimmy Alberston also has some pretty...

mikey Started a new thread Lites SX/MX and SX/MX rules

1/25/2012 8:32pm
I have read alot about the rules regarding eligibility for either class. Why have rules forcing riders to move up? I think both classes can have great riders. Anyone care to explain why they think older riders should be forced to ride the SX/MX classes? I just don't get it, both bikes take equal talent to ride; just a different...

DV, You have been a racer since a young age, and you have had a successful career. In addition, you have been a good ambassador to the sport. Its no secret that competing in any sport at the highest level takes many sacrifices and substantial hard work. In fact, most of us fans envy guys like you who have put...
