If you took every tear off ever dropped in the California desert, and laid them side by side, it wouldn't come close to the amount of acreage bulldozed for solar farms. It's a pet peeve of mine. Been fighting land access out here for decades. Saving the environment and the turtles always being the given reason for our continually reducing access. But when is comes time to make some money- bring in the dulldozers. Not advocating for tear offs, more of a comment on the hypocrisy of "environmentalists" and the government.

I apologise, I thought we were here to comment on the action on screen not the drawbacks and minor 1st world problems of a live broadcast.

TheWrizzle and CyGrace74 obviously don't know what it's like to live in California. You can't leave anything of value out in the open or unattended. The thieves are so brazen it's unbelievable. I don't agree with calling out any one class of criminal, the crack heads and homeless do there fair share also. The problem is they get off with...
I don't think Ando has anything to apologize for, He was in the line, running the berm and Kenny's line on the outside of it ran out and he had to cut into Jasons line. on top of that Jason had a wheel on him. I'm a fan of both riders and not a fan of dirty riding, but the...
To do this segment during the qualifying is a disgrace to the Privateers working their asses off on the track. They should be talking about each of the riders and mentioning their sponsors, maybe a little back story or two about how they got here or past results. The sponsors that support the privateers deserve to get a mention or...

The block pass from BamBam was textbook. JA21 should have known it was coming long before the turn and tightened up the turn to impede his line. I love JA21 and am not a big fan of BamBam because sometimes he'll take out someone's front wheel when it's not necessary, like when he is clearly faster while coming through the...

Just a suggestion, try checking with any of your neighbors that might have a Ring doorbell camera or security camera that may have caught the bottom feeder by chance. They may have put it in a truck or van, or maybe even pushed or rode it down the street. I hope you get lucky and get it back.

Okay, just a couple of observations. Barcia hit the deck really hard and laid there for awhile before the flaggers and medical personnel got to him. The whole time he was laying there face down in the dirt grabbing at his lower back. The flaggers were pretty quick to put out the red cross flag on the lane that is...

I know that Doc Bodnar's team is more than capable of assessing the injuries of the riders. I was just making an observation that the whole situation looked sketchy from the stands, and given the location, it felt to me that the rush to get him off the track and out of dangers way could, and I emphasize could, have...

That's not what I'm saying. But if the rider can't get up on his own, and is in a dangerous location like Justin was, I feel the safety of the rider and the medical staff comes first. Did you see the medic crouching down to talk to Justin trying to keep his feet out of the outside lane where everyone...

I'm not sure I would call that walking, as I recall, his legs were dangling as they carried him by the armpits across the track. He was trying to stand on his own at the back of the mule before I returned to watch the race. I think my main concern would be that they should have taken some more...

Don't know the story, but if you are ever coming to So Cal, you can stay at one of his many cabins in Randsburg, Ca. In the Mojave Desert and ask him yourself. He's a very cool dude. search - Goats Sky Ranch B&B

I loved riding and racing Saddleback. It was a love hate relationship. There was nothing that compared to the first motos, the second motos were a real test of your endurance. I loved trail riding in the back country, spinning laps on the oval, making attempts at the Matterhorn, and just watching the best of the best of the So...

Congrats to Chad Reed, right or wrong, he single handedly shut down Vital. I personally don't think he meant to put Canard into the tuff blocks, just giving him a bump and Canard was pulling a tear off with his hand off of the bars. Smile
