Heard Chi-town looking for a SuperMotoCross race….BeetleJuice said it’s a safe city👌

Oh it has everything to do with Oakland. The only West Coast round that starts,and has started in years previous-without the flooding of the track this year-at 5pm. There is a reason and it isn't so people on the east coast can enjoy it. Car break ins? Laughable. Oakland, California, is among the U.S. cities with the highest homicide rates. There were a total of 102 murders reported in the city in 2020, or 23.3 for every 100,000 people — well above the national homicide rate of 6.5 murders per 100,000. Im telling you-You don't want to be in this...

I'll be there with my son, my buddy, and his stepson. My other buddy who works at the Coliseum said the main reason it's starting at 4:30 is the amount of vehicles that were broke into and stolen at the lot the last several years, not actual face to face robberies. I've been going to that stadium since I was 12 for random events and have never been or seen a person being robbed. Cars being vandalized or stolen? Everytime. That's why I'm taking Bart. Last year parking was around $40 and the next day my buddy found several scratches...

Not really, the mouth breathers in east Oakland will rob yer ass 24-7. They don't give a shit if it's 12 noon.

That makes sense.

They are probably trying to avoid the spectators leaving the stadium too long after sunset

Why and how is this something fans would "realize?" I don't recall Reed ever talking about his aboriginal heritage, at least not in the US where it's about as relevant as Elizabeth Warren's heritage is to an Australian.

Mmmm. Yeah, a person would think that but,,,, https://youtu.be/ZOt9NZITdLs

Agree on that, it absolutely does not 🤣 From moving around South Africa for a couple of years to the GF travelling round Indian countries and my old man going basically anywhere obscure across the world with work, it's interesting how blatantly and unashamedly racist a lot of people from all walks are. Personally, I couldn't give a fuck if someone was Monster green although their doctor might. Also, possibly the biggest thread bump I've ever seen? Damn...

Does being aboriginal, or any race,,,, automatically exclude a person from being racist? Not saying Chad is, btw.

Jordon Smith comes to mind, I really hope he proves me wrong though. Love his effort every time Also Davalos, he was in the position to win so many times. But I think to make it more positive, some of the most mentally strong guys were definitely RV, RC, Reed, Herlings, Cairoli.. and, Ferrandis. Ferrandis is underrated as he really always believed in himself back in the MXGP days in MX2, he was one of the few that really believed in himself being able to beat Herlings. Even though it didn't happen that often, he never went easy with him.

Hitting your marks could mean timing jumps properly including hitting the rear wheel on the frontside of a jump to slow you down on some jumps and hitting the downside on others for full acceleration.

When I don't have a lot of wood to chop.

He's probably complaining he is a private contractor, but KTM wants to tell him how to spend his money.

Factory do NOT pay bonuses if you get 2nd or worse in the series (unless you're a second tier/replacement guy). I finished 2nd in SX twice and twice, I received $0 from Yamaha... From the grapevine, Aldon's 450 rider fee is at least $200k. If you win 2 races, you make $200k (gross). You would write off Aldon's 200k from your taxes but that means you wouldn't pay taxes on 200k. You'd still be out $100k. You'll have to make at least $400k gross to get your money back on a $200k investment. $400k is 4 wins, 8 2nd place...

The real question is.....where will Coop end up in 24. I think he's done at KTM. Tomac retires, I can see Webb kicking ass on a Star tuned YZ again....

Cooper is obviously better. But I don’t think that he got tired many races last year, like, I think the fitness was fine … so what’s the magic , the competition? More access to testing and someone there to help ?

Guess I missed it. There had to be some truth to it considering how the KTM family of products performed last year at elite level of competition.
