I would think Pala SX is going to be popping tomorrow if they hadn’t got too much rain. Since I am on the mend (non bike related) I make take a cruise out there.

Glen Helen, Pala, and Elsinore

My boss, at the time, was Justin Homan, of Metal Mulisha fame. He had an old CR 250, in which he flipped it into his pond, long before foam.

It is the off season.

What a crock of shit by the police here. Dudes on a licensed scooter with a top speed of like 50mph and this is how they handle it? Unreal and unprofessional.

So Justin Cooper is supposed to stay at the track and celebrate that his competitor won, and took money out of his pocket by beating him ? I don’t think so. They are not friends during the week, I can tell you that for certain. Bob Hannah was a major dickhead to his fellow Yamaha riders, but he had one thing correct- every man for himself if there is money involved, and don’t make friends with the guys you line up on the gate with to compete for that money, even if they are paid by the same manufacturer that...

I don't understand the "early exit" statement. Cooper is paid to race and to conduct PR with fans. His racing was done for whatever reason, and there was no after race autograph session to attend. He's not an employee on the clock, he is an independent contractor. I dont understand the needless drama over the dude leaving when his job is done.

What do you think this is, some amateur soccer or softball league where the "boys" go for a drink and celebrate after a win? These men are professionals who race dirt bikes as their job, they come to the track, race, and go home. the "Team" is owned by businessmen who contract athletes to ride their motorcycles. Do you expect them on race night to be around a campfire with beer and a Yamaha flag celebrating? I can tell you, on practice days the champion Ferrandis is the first one to leave after he finishes riding. these guys don't socialize...

The team pays Cooper to race, not hang around all day and celebrate others accomplishments.

You guys know this isn’t baseball right? The word “team” is pretty loose. I think vital is crying more than cooper

Do you hang around work once your shift/day is over to pep up other employees?

Some humans excel at certain things more than others regardless of preparation. That’s how literally everything in life works.

My ass puckered on that one too
