East coast origins will rule tonight

There is sand all over the world too, but we expect people that grow up riding in sand often to perform better than those that don't at places like southwick and lommel.

My point being, the guys that grew up amatuer racing on the east coast most likely have more experience riding in precipitation, which will give them an advantage.

I was really expecting webb to podium. I'll gladly eat my words about this race. Anderson was ripping corners like the track was dry.
