About Me
I used to ride but had to quit some 8 yearsago when i hurtmy knee pretty bad. I started working with mx back then insted, and still do this running my own company.

I love 2strokes, prefere motocross over sx, so I'm pretty oldschool i guess.


My favourite riders are Mickael Pichon and Christophe Pourcel.


I'm 33years old, married, two kids and not enough time/money to buy a bike just for fun.

BTW... I think 4strokes are the root to all things evil in our sport. They are expensive, sound ugly, makes the racing less demanding etc. I could go on 4ever. I hate them...

themrtoad Started a new thread Ryan Hughes 2nd i Sweden

1/27/2012 12:49am
Ryno was two times 2nd behind Tom Söderström in Swedish Championship MX1-class. Nikolaj Larsen won MX2, Kjetil Gundersen was 2nd (Kennets younger brother) The official Husqvarna team managed by the guy that imports Husqvarna in Sweden rode disguised Suzukis, how's that for marketing? LOL

themrtoad Started a new thread One Swedish rider less in the GPs

1/26/2012 10:49pm
I just found out swedish rider Tom Söderström have lost his ride with Delta Suzuki. They claim the team was not wanted by YS, but they will make an acception for Kevin Strijbos because of his name and merits. Tom however whas not welcome to ride MX1. The same team made a deal with Johan Carlsson for MX1 2010 but...

1/26/2012 11:38am
With 10 days to Sevlievo how is he doing? What kind of injuries right now and when can he get back on the bike? to racing? I know there was a video interview with him a while ago but never watched it and know I can't find it.

themrtoad Started a new thread MXGP silly season here

1/25/2012 3:36pm
Give me all the crazy rumours of who ends up where. I'm only interested in riders/teams racing the GP's. GP riders moving to USA or the other way around is interesting as well. Please don't turn this thread into GP vs AMA.

themrtoad Started a new thread TEKA and Markus Bau part ways

1/24/2012 6:10pm
I saw this PR on motocrossplanet.com. Teka together with energydrinks are one of few companys to put big bucks into MX. Markus Bau was the reason this happened, so I can't see anything positive coming out of this. I've said it before and and I say it again. If a few companys change their marketplans we are bancrupt. I prefered...

themrtoad Started a new thread anyone having trouble joining mx-life-tv??

1/24/2012 4:47pm
I do love the gp's after all and finally decided to join, getting pretty angry now after trying for 15 minutes. The damn site just tells me error on my perfectly correct email, and it will not accept any of my suggested passwords. It's impossible to join (for me at least...) What's your experience from it? Have you succesfully joined...

themrtoad Added a reply to RC... why would you quit? comment

1/16/2012 12:20pm
I've also heard his body couldn't take anymore from all the years with steroids. My source is not from this thread but from another toprider that's well respected both in Europe and even more in the US. I think it's true for lot's of reasons. I'm also aware that it's not cheating under the roules where he was racing so...

themrtoad Started a new thread USGP better than MXDN?

1/15/2012 11:06am
In many ways it will be. Most of the top riders in the world comes from a few countries. MXDN is just thrre good riders from each country. In a few years time(or even this first year) you will see the best FIM riders and the best AMA riders go head to head in MX1 and MX2. Now you will...

themrtoad Added a reply to I wonder which two stroke Reed liked the best...

11/29/2011 4:09am
I also liked steelframes rather than aluminium. I loved my 1997 CR125 but hated my 1998 one. I really liked all my RM250's 96-99. Liked the YZ 250 2001, kind of liked my SX380 2001 but nevet got a good feeling with the CR 250 2002. The steelframes felt more connected to the ground, less stiff on choppy parts and...

I was there for a few years. I remeber you could earn a new level after how many posts you scored. I think I made expert or something?? As I recall I was the themrtoad there too. I hated fourstrokes back then as well.

10/27/2011 10:35am
I would say Townley actually rode "better" than RC. But RC had so much more in stamina. After the race BT was finished, and RC looked like he was ready to go another 35 minutes. I find it weird that the best rider in the world, and the 2nd best rider in the world that day was separated by so...

I never stated something else. I understand the benefits of different drugs/medicines/steroides etc and it will give the upper hand to the one that's using them against their twinbrother that's not if they both try their best.
