I'm the one from Virginia (same as Zach Osbourne). I was replying to that douche. I doubt he knows where Virginia is.

Damn... in retrospect.

F,B., are you actually tracking IP addresses/locations of posters? If so, you rank amongst the saddest losers ever.

Oh, Brownstone322, it is "Osborne", not "Osbourne". He is not related to Ozzy.

I'll bite..

Completely different scenario IMO. Tomac doesn't already have a race in England to do the week after MXdN. If he did, only then could you try to compare the two situations. You think Herlings would be racing if there wasn't a GP in the US the week after? Come on man.
i'll bite , yeah he would .. he would come over mid season in summer break for a race if the opportunity came along
he wanted to race earlier remember in MX2 , and it was not when there was a USGP cheduled . Injuries spoiled it , but yeah you are wrong he would do it , def .

Those are the excuses guys here gave Tomac for skipping MXDN. Herlings must be crazy to defy death at this worthless event.....

That might be a legitimate comparison if it weren't for the fact that herlings was already coming over here to train with aldon and for the next mxgp round. Good try though

Rumor has it that this Aldon guy asked Herlings to show him how GP riders excel without trainers.

I think he is using a bobcat, a shovel isn't enough.

Yeah, but it'd be cool if he were related to Ozzy.

With Dungey gone from KTM USA would this not be the perfect time if any for Herlings to finally come over to the states after this years GP is over? I dont see an opening like that coming again any time soon after it is filled which Musquin is now the main guy but there is still 1 spot open. I hope he has thought about this because now would be the time.

Herlings does not want to come over. He just signed his deal to race the gps.

He has stated many times that he doesn't want to leave his home, family & friends plus he wants to beat Everts records for GP wins & titles.

It's way to early for him to retire from World Class racing.

Hahahahha, I know right. The GP field is stacked like I've never seen it before. He'd leave that to bounce up and down in Supercross?

Indeed. Can you imagine if he got punished like Roczen over some stupid x games jump.

Herlings belongs in a true world series where he will ride all terrain including real sand tracks.

Im not bashing on US riders thou, I think Tomac if he switched it up could be a awesome deep sand rider. He has the talent, shame he never rides the tracks.

I agree with you; the top U.S. riders are awesome. American motocross culture, however, sold out to Mickey Mouse stadium racing a long time ago, and that part of the season (the bulk of the season) is just crap.

Herlings has laid a lot more on the line here but I guess that's the true racer in him and can only gain him more fans,
He's still going for 2nd place in the MXGP standings but his schedule is pretty intense with the pond hopping,he's doing consecutive weeks in Europe then on the US then on Europe...

20 August MXGP Sweden
25 August AMA Ironman
03 Sept MXGP USA
10 Sept MXGP Netherlands
17 Sept MXGP Villlars Sous Ecout
Rest
01 Oct MXdN England
