There needs to be something in place for A riders in their 30’s. There’s a 15 year gap from 25+ to 40+. Some say just run 25+, but there’s a huge difference in the way your body feels at 25 vs 35 trying to compete at a level like that. Most of these guys have a family and are weekend warriors. Kinda lame they changed the ruling of the class at this point when they announced the classes last year. I feel bad for the guys that started training months ago and putting everything in place to all of a...

I would be ok with a 30 A class. I don't care about racing other 30+ ex pro guys. If Alessi shows up then so be it. I just hate that my only choices now are basically with kids. I have to race locally with A kids all the time because racing Vet locally to me is not fun. Lorettas...

9 years for me. Lot of difference between a 25 year old still chasing some nationals and racing every weekend and guys like myself who only race once a month and have other obligations.

So what I'm gathering is most of you guys think that myself and others who were once pros are more badass than we give ourselves credit?? The more that I hear " he was a pro" the more I feel like I was once a Tomac or Roczen. The reality is guys that couldn't score points and were just there...

There is no fix for it. There can’t be 1 class that pleases both. I don’t get why some people think old pros are still pros?? If you don’t race full time as your job then your not a pro. There are more youth at the ranch that should be considered pro than the vet guys everyone complains about. How...

So on the loophole. Last year I thought about signing up for Dallas. So I went through the whole process online and the ama still had all my info from when I previously had a license, 2011. I made it through all the steps up to paying and I backed out. I just checked again and all my info is...

I will gladly be the replacement for Dungey. Tell Roger all I need is 40k a year and expenses paid. I can't win but on a factory bike I can make the show.

I don't think a union will ever work. When I hear union all I think about is a bunch of employees wanting more money from the man cause he makes too much. What the sport needs is a committee of ex-pros, people who have been in the situations that the current riders are in and also have tons of knowledge...

The top picture is my youngest son on my middle son's bike. The bottom pic is my oldest son. The middle boy just started riding by himself a few weeks ago and I don't have any pics of him riding yet.

Never loan out your bike or your old lady cause you might end up with a rod thrown in both. And OP does Youngstown still have that freestyle shit in the middle with freestyle guys going nuts while the moto guys are riding? I went there while I was staying in ohio in between the outdoors and I remember that...

That's an awesome story! I'm a new mini dad as my 5 year old just started racing. I try to keep it fun and never push him to do anything he doesn't want to do. My dad still races and so do I so we have 3 generations out riding when we all go together. Would be cool to have...

I raced Lorettas from 1994 to 2009 and it just seems that the jumps are less technical now. Even the 10 commandments have been changed. If it didn't get so rough and rutted it would be pretty lame
