Honestly, I'm so happy that more, and more Amercans attending some Euro on-off races, like Paris-Bercy and Geneva. There was a years, when we got lucky to have at least on of American stars. But look at now. Zaco, Brayton, Barcia, Peick, Graig, McAdoo, Seely, Mookie. You name it. Those races looking like more and more like real SX races
Weston Peick his injury could change some riders their attitude again, but it's nice to see a revival. The golden '90 won't return I think but this comes close. I mean Geneva in Switserland having a starting line-up with 7 AMA riders - 1 MXGP rider and then the Frenchies. Oh and then I didn't count Cameron McAdoo in the SX2. There has been years were 3-4 AMA riders was the maximum.
So we're indeed lucky the only thing missing is two real World Championship Supercross rounds maybe.

It's "Lucky Us." "We", like "I", is a subject pronoun. "Us", like "Me", is an object pronoun.

Carry on.
And indeed I dunno why MXGP under the level of Grand Prix winning so: Clément Desalle, Antonio Cairoli and Jeffrey Herlings aren't trying to make some money at those races on the better build tracks like Stuttgart, Paris, Geneva, ... Look at Tixier he didn't make a fool from himself, the contrary he rode very well for a guy who've been out of SX Races since for ever. Someone like Gautier Paulin could make big money, if you keeps training and sets up a supercross bike while training on one of those South France SX Tracks he could make 200k in Paris and Geneva. Risk - Reward is pretty nice if you ask me.
as far as the original post goes, it is nice to see these guys racing over there, it would be cool to include some of these international sx races in our series again, but im afraid those days may be long gone.
Paulin should do these races for sure, he has the experience.
To observeroffacts, not sure why so hostile. Just observing a fact, so to speak
