Didn’t it take RV forever to get a win at Washougal? RD on the other hand was unbelievable there.

Interesting…. But to be fair, he didn’t need to. The titles just kept rolling in with what he had.

Another common sight...

Over under 4.5 SX races for Ty this year? I’ll go under.

Man these private kawi teams always have the worst looking bikes

I have probably read 2 or 3 books in my lifetime as I have ADD, that was before it was actually a thing. 🙄 But Chuck Yeager's book and Jeremy McGrath are the two I can think of off hand. 😁 At one time Chuck Yeager was the FMOTP (Fastest Man on the Planet) and was the FIRST one to break the sound barrier.

It is very valuable to have a disposable friend/agent by your side to be a buffer between the athlete and media/public, one who isn't afraid to tell people to beat it.

Glad racing is back in a couple days

Non moto, tour the USS Midway.

After last year a lot of people thought we would take a couple years to reload, but Coach did a great job bringing in talent and making the young guys shine. It’s a GREAT time to be a Cats Fan!
