Really stoked that Jo was able to not only lock down a ride but a top tier one at that. He could easily be PC's best rider this season.

Are you forgetting about Forkner?

Forkner will be fast. but he is coming off a huge injury.

Plus we seen Forkner struggle when he has to fight for a win, especially if he is racing against Jett and Craig who both love to battle.

I think Jo will be PC's biggest underdog.

No sir I am not forgetting about Forkner. Are you forgetting about Forkner’s last 2 SX seasons?

sometimes a flash photo like that will give it a surreal look that looks almost photoshopped.

We don't know how much of a effect those injuries he sustained, will have on his ongoing results.

Forkner comes in as number 1 for sure... If Shimoda has the same improvement from 20 to 21 as he did going from 19 to 20, he's going to be right there. The door is unlocked, will he or can he open it?

I still think him and Jordan Smith are faster/better. Not hating, I think PC signing Jo was great and he is still only getting better. I don’t see him leading frogging the previous two I mentioned this year.

I guess we’re just arguing the definition of “best rider” at this point.

Good for Joe. I barely noticed the guy last year because of the Lawrence bros and Jmart. It'll be interesting to see what he does with it. I think Ty Masterpool wouldve been a better pick but I get the case for Shimoda. And Mitch knows what hes doing.

My brother and his partner just did the team shoot. Check out more of their work on Instagram @octopi.media. Some cool stuff there.

How you figure? Jo beat Ty in points in both SX (Ty didn’t even try SX) and Outdoor, and Jo finished on the podium in the final moto of the year. I can’t quite figure out how you could sell Masterpool as a better choice.
Wait, I just figured it out. You’re from Texas.

Why for once can’t we say great signing, congrats to him and wish the team well.

Not EVERYTHING has to be a dick measuring contest with who’s guy will be better.

Yeah, Joe is going to need to get on with it in those whoops. He might not be comfortable on the Kawi yet.

Nope... Joe gained so much speed last year, while Forkner was sitting at home recovering... we'll see for sure soon enough.. Smile
