3rd in todays qualifying session at Lommel. He still has speed, he probably just wasn't able to get a good enough contract in the GPs to justify risking his health.

Very good fill-in option for a US based team when nationals start. And we all know the sport, fill-in riders will unfortunately be needed.

Retires from professional racing and goes to race AMA Nationals after that..
Seriously he doesnt get good enough contract to race all over world for 10 months a year and
much shorter AMA season would fit his life with family better.

Two of my favourite pictures of The MX Panda. Both from the 2009 Everts Charity Race, where he raced a CR500:

Scrubbing - yeah, I'm sure you can scrub better than that..............

Hole Shoting a Moto:



Fill in , or single series ride for the US Nationals? He's got a family to take with him, so it couldn't be for peanuts. I'm pretty sure he'd not want to eat into his retirement portfolio. But, It would be great to see, if he were serious.

I guess the last year Russia crash he had helped a bit for his decision ..
