And how would you know that? what an utterly stupid thing to say.
Yeah, they are just turning up to look cool and hang out with their buddies.
You know they finished 2nd last year, and 3rd the year before with Kenny yeah?
at the end of they day they have been beaten by a 4 time Motocross champion, doesnt mean they arent trying to beat him.....its really not difficult to understand.
And I bet if they wrote Eli an astronomical cheque and they won, you would say "Honda just buy championships"
And while his results, speed etc is already proven in SX to be of absolute elite status, one would hope he's able to bring the heat upon his return and on the new '21 next year. I wonder if they've forward contingency planned into mid next year if things haven't improved after this time off?
He can sit out the Nationals, by the end of this weekend no one will remember him, the talk will center around the racing.
It's going to be fun silly season talk before A1. I bet all Ken fans will talk on how dominant he was in his "good races in 2020" at the same time totally ignoring when he got lapped and comments of such pointing the invincible form he was half a decade ago (2016).
The sport forgets fast and easly. "You are as good as your last race". So I hope for Ken's legacy that he comes swinging in 2021.
This is more of a question. I would imagine these atheletes count how many concussions they have like how many cat lives they have left. Just reality when you start a family. Just not enough money for these riders in Outdoors?
I doubt he makes it back, at least in a way that hes competing for championships. Why would mire time off help him? Hes had more healthy time off this year than ever in his life.
Hes gotten a taste of that family life and not traveling every weekend... and he likes it.

At any rate, it's tough to compare that with Roczen skipping an entire series, don't you think? RC competed in the majority of the '99 SX races and then won the 125 MX championship that year.
I’d compare it more to Kdub taking a hiatus in 02
He has still struggled with the season ending in August before for the next year, so to go even later into the year and give less down time to recover and rest the body before sx testing begins on the grind back to A1 only means he'll be worse off next year.
Plus the fact he has a brand new bike to develop too adds to it. They don't believe he can win outdoors in current condition so are pulling the plug hoping for a better next year. Which I am fully down with him pulling out if they feel it'll help his competitiveness next year. Remember how good the races were for half of sx when he was feeling good. That's what we want for a full season, and I'm pretty confident we wouldn't get that if he had to grind the outdoor season out and straight into bike development for upcoming sx season. So I just want a healthy Kenny for next year racing and if that means skipping 9 races, which btw aren't certain to all happen yet, then I'm down with it.
you believe that?
Fmotp dont come to race the biggest race on this planet?
They got a asskick a year before on homesoil. Everyone, Kenny too.
