Just like De Coster, Jeff Emig didn't hold back on his analysis of Ryan Dungey's rides in Germany.

We also spoke to Jeff about his rivalry with McGrath in his glory days in the 1990s.

It was a privilege to meet and interview one of the riders I looked up to as a kid. Here is the interview...

It would be awesome to sit down and have a beer with Jeff. I bet he's a laid back fun loving kind of guy.

Good read.

Absolutely but the Dogger did not win 4 titles and wasn't on 6 straight MXdN teams and never had the most mx wins of a decade like Fro in the 90's etc etc Lechein was great but he is no Emig.

Fro never dominated at the MXDN like Ronnie did in 1988 with his double moto win on the big 500cc two stroke at Villars sous Ecot France after spending the night out with a girlfriend, only getting back to the team hotel as the support crew were knocking on his room trying to raise him. Class act!

Agreed but Emig also won his class at the MXdN 4 times got 2nd once and were not gonna talk about the bull shit 97 race where Belgium purposely over watered the track to make it a mud pit.... The Dogger is a bad ass no doubt but he could never put it together for a full season on the big bikes.

Great interview, McCread!

Fro definitely seems to enjoy talking moto with just about anyone who loves it like he does. You can see him walking the track most nationals before the broadcast, and he's prettyr regularly stopping to spend time talking to folks.

Awesome interview...... Emig is a class act. I think he has improved significantly in the booth and love his race analysis. Awesome job Fro.

Grazie Sondy!

Yeah....that is the way it works. Now wait until that genius " Wrong turn-right left , Righty-lefty....wtf ever his name is ) comes in here and bags on Fro for saying the same thing Decoster , JT and many others..... Including yours truley. He takes it as were insulting RD........which is the furthest from the truth.
