"A personal goal to race a SX at 40yo".
If he still has that goal in a couple of years. I have no doubt he will.

He'll turn 40 in March of 2022. Coincidence? I think not Grinning

-Scores points in 2020 at 38 years old.
-Secures #22 for 2021.
-2021 sends letter to keep #22 for an additional year.
-2022 lines up at 40 years old.
-Officially announces retirement from pro MX/SX racing career.

^^^^^^WTF is with the downvotes??? Man alive. Not only does it sound plausible, it is entirely realistic. I hope he can do it, and it would be very difficult to one up Chad-for anyone else to get to 40 and still make a supercross main? Tough beans.

No worries. I just don't see him wanting to line up at 40 years old on anything other than a #22 bike.

If he can't, then hopefully it'll be a #103 Yamaha bike.

And, yes, I know he's already announced that 2020 will be his last year as a professional MX/SX racer.

If he says he wants to line up for a supercross race at 40, I wouldn't put it passed him. It's Chad Reed.

Looking forward to seeing it happen.

Still a long time to keep the pencil sharp for sure. He would have to ride on the regular to accomplish this goal.
