... and BobbyM just took his shirt off.

Got this info from VitalMX twitter (the Alessi part...)

Edit: Thank you to moderator for adding a '?' mark. Right after I posted this Alessi tweeted that he's OUT,

After the battle Alessi had with Cairoli last year, this is a very good thing for the racing this weekend.

I think it was crazy for KTM to even have him race the final couple of rounds of SX. He's a outdoor guy and had made it through the SX season, basically healthy. Shouldn't have chanced it for the last couple, and focused on outdoors since he wasn't in the hunt for title. JMHO

We will see what he does, michaels head is more sensitive then most, not in a sence that his head is weak but the fact that when he says he hit his head it's an automatic 2 weeks off from high pressure events where he could have to put risk out on the track, especially racing the usgp n being pretty much the best who will show up from our country that makes it all the more reason that he would ride at 100% and that means his full speed, none of that 110% stuff he strait up rides at 100% when he is racing for pride wich is almost everytime he's on a mx track, maybe in sx he turns it down 35% but mx is what he loves so if he's there he will be racing to win and thats when mike and 'TA' have to decide if it's worth that risk, from what he said to me it sounds like he will decide today or tomorrow morning, I know he loves racing for his country and when he was turned down for mx of nations a few times in the past it was very upsetting for him so I think he looks at this event as a second op to race the worlds best on his own turf, I just wish ktm would of let him take off Vegas like he wanted cause he was 30 points away from anyone around him n that race didn't matter, still I know representing your sponsors comes first and he does what he's told to do, just sometimes it's better to save your ace for when it counts n that may have thrown it away for this weekend, ill be there to watch our team, rock river powersports help out one of the yamaha gp teams, they are going to be pitted out of our semi an christina denney our team manager, and kyle our semi driver and i will be providing as much support as we can for these guys to do good while there here, so it should be a great event. See some of you tomorrow, no bad talk about my grammar, trying to provide some information to the public. God bless.

BTW Jeff, I took a picture of you at MIllville a couple years ago and my girlfriend submitted it at Milwaukee area photo show thing and got 1st place in the action category. I know, random information, yet kind of neat.

Tp4, it would be like if I were to Take a bat to your head n beat it till u have a level 4 head injury n then ask u sometime in the future to go race a race at full speed a week after you had another concussion n 1 week before the most important series u do starts, oh ya dude u must not know I'm Italian, I'm crazy, but seriously dont call him a puss again, for the rest of u that don't no, Michael had a head injury in amatuer racing that taught us a lesson about the head, u only get one chance to let it heal cause the second hit u take within a week leaves u in a coma for a week n then not knowing who your mom is for 3 weeks, n none of that is n exaggeration, mike alessi is not soft.

Reason for edit, my grammar, n it sounds like I said I was gonna beat someone with a bat, the 'bat line' is for reference. Thanks.

Jeff,
That amateur race you are talking about where Mike rang his bell was at Perris right? If I remember right you, Mike and my son Ricky were going at it that day.

False alarm.

Hey everyone. I am not racing the USGP. Just doing some riding the next few days to get ready for Hangtown. Have a good weekend.
I talked to Tony at Vegas and he seemed very excited for the USGP. Mike must be pretty banged up. Bummer

Post a reply to: Alessi back in for USGP?
