Ping's take: Legends.

Back when Motocross was great. At the end of each season in the 70’s there was a series called the Trans Am and some of Europe’s best led by Roger would .come race America’s best on 500cc (open class) works bikes in two 40-minute+2 lap motos! The entire top twenty was star power unlike anywhere else.. ever! Even the 250cc support class was like a National with quality riders from the 125 & 250 classes that had a better shot than in the international class. For a while Americans .couldn’t win against Roger. It was in fact a great honor just to be first American. Slowly but surely riders like Jim Pomeroy and Brad Lackey who had been successful in Europe winning motos and GP’s and then Marty Smith, America’s first superstar followed by Bob Hannah started winning motos and overalls in the Trans Am. De Coster was still the man though. I don’t know who took this picture but I love it! Lackey #32 out front, De Coster, Hannah and Smith chasing... Incredible impact these guys had on motocross in the 70’s. I’m glad I got to witness much of this and am grateful for their example and motivation to one day get out there and race among the best. #motocross #70’s

Resnick's take: Respect to Zacho for jumping headfirst into the GNCC world.

What a day! I knew the start would be key which sounds strange in a 3 hour long race, but with the dust and my lack of experience to set my own pace I knew I needed someone to sort of pace me into it. The dust was insane, I fell about 7 times, and I didn’t have the result I wanted or feel I’m capable of but it beat the heck out of sitting at home. The @rockstarhusky boys were so awesome and such a fun group and those @gncc_racing fans were unreal! Never been cheered on so much in 20th place in my life😂😂. I love doing these races and I will be back for some redemption at some point. 📸 @shanyphoto

GuyB's Picks

GuyB's take: Go, Collin!

GuyB's take: We love road riding as a training tool, but this is scary. We’re glad to hear that Mike’s relatively okay. The bike? Not so much.

Things that make you loose faith in humanity ... @mikealessi_800 doing an honest @mypowerdot challange putting in his daily cycling miles gets mowed down at 8am in the morning by a careless red pick truck on a Florida bike route. The Driver promptly sped away and left him in a bloody heap bruised and banged up on the road side. A trip to the hospital followed by staples in his head and stitches in his elbo ... @mikealessi_800 lives to ride again ...

GuyB's take: Would you ride (or try to ride) this? We’ve seen Travis do some wild rides, but this is unique.

Life Size Toys new episodes daily on @quibi free two week trial subscription. Stomp Rocket was a bad idea 🤔but made for a good episode. One of those moments (sitting on a rocket, feeling a bit like Wile E Coyote after the “test” run went 300 feet but the “rocket scientists” said “we’ve made the .correct adjustments and you’ve got this”) where I had to trace back what poor life decisions had led me to this moment 🤷‍♂️😂 always great times with this crew though! @meandmychucks @nitrorednekhubert @vgolden423 @trevorpiranha @nitrocircus

Klinger's Picks

Klinger's take: Graphic content warning but it has a happy ending.

View this post on Instagram

Today marks the 5-year anniversary of me grenade-ing my smile. The surgeons and dentists I’ve seen have told me my case has been one of, if not THE most difficult they’ve experienced, trying to get a functional smile that still looks decent. That being said, I’m incredibly grateful for the effort from everyone involved on the path to my new smile. We’re still gonna tweak it a little to dial in the aesthetics, but the function of the implants is fantastic, which was the main priority. It’s been quite a long time looking at myself in the mirror every night without permanent teeth and it feel so great to be on the backside of that. There are still moments I replay the crash in my mind and try to change it. But this all has definitely taught me a great deal about self-image and acceptance, and in an odd way, I’m grateful for the experience. My third bit of gratitude in this post goes out to all of my friends and family that we’re so supportive every step of the way. And especially my wife (@katie.bell25) who’s love and strength never wavered, even in the moments I was feeling most down. I suppose that was the main point of this point, to appreciate the journey and give thanks. Stoked to be sharing my new permanent smile! #grateful #smile #thanks
