About Me
I raced back in the 70's and early 80's, back in the day as I tell my son. Now I just work on his bikes and travel through out the Midwest having a blast in MX.

I also take a lot of "amateur" photos, but every once in a while I'll get lucky and grab a couple of decent shots.

I live in Southern Indiana, near Evansville. We race at Lincoln Trail, Echo Valley, Backwoods MX, Crossroads and try to make it to Red Bud 2 or 3 times a year.

Ralph's "Rock Hard, Ride Hard" BS Not used as much this year, but "The Fastest Man on the Planet" grew old quick, real damn quick! I get a kick out of RC's "braaap". My kid and his buddies are always doing that about jumps!

That sucks big time! I'm afraid at that point, I'd have had to take it into my own hands. Probably got shot or thumped in the head, but at that point rational thinking would be out the door and somebody would be getting a beat down. Hope you find the sumbitches, soon!!

25 points on the line and if any of you that have ever raced and were in the same position, would have done the same thing. The gate drops the bullshit stops. When did arguably the toughest sport known to man, become so politically correct?

Sounds like an every year occurrence when the SX comes to town. Noticed in another post, the poster feels it's an inside job. Wonder why they think that? Sounds like common knowledge, stuffs gettin' ripped in the ATL.

I thought Ralph, Fro and RC have said before the blue flags just warn of being lapped and the riders aren't "required" to pull over. Hell, they're racing too, just not as fast unfortunately. I could, and may well be wrong on this!!!! Start black flagging riders once you are lapped and score them where they were when lapped. Then...

If you think it was for "only" thanking Bailey, do a little more "fact finding" and let us all know what ya come up with.

Jawing and talking mean the same to mean. Sorry for the confusion. I've also never said one way or the other, my thoughts on the situation. The original guy was asking video proof, and it was telecast live on Speed, so I'm not sure how much more proof ya need. You just need to watch the entire telecast. My thoughts...

Did you watch the race? Barcia was jawing with Kilbarger first. Commercial, etc... during Barcia interview I believe is when they showed the Lipanovich episode.

I believe he and Kilbarger shook hands. I don't think he gave Lipanovich the chance! Didn't he get booted from MTF for this kind of BS???

We ran them on my sons RM250, and then the KXF450 with very good luck. Seem like they wore forever, too! Mostly hardpack, intermediate type stuff in our neck of the woods.

It looked like he made a major effort to get his right leg back on the peg just before impact. Probably saved a broken leg!
