I get it, I get it, you are better than us...
While we'd all like to see the riders at peak performance, the injury has obviously set him back. Seeing the look his face, it pained me to watch him try and remove his boot at A1.
Though he may not be anywhere near 100 percent, I like the sport better with Chad in it.
But I do have to say, Chad would be in a much better position today if he was in professional supercross racer shape when he broke his foot. I have never liked how he lets himself go every summer. I don't think a professional supercross racer should ever be seen 20 pounds heavier than his in-season weight, having not been in the gym or on a bike for 4 months, when he's healthy all summer. It doesn't take much to not get chubby in the off season lol. Not when it's your job.
Chad should have been training like an average guy 4 days a week for an hour or so and he shouldn't have gone more than a month off the bike at a time. This mountain he's climbing could have been 40% smaller had he been in average shape. The kind of shape Brayton stays in each summer.

Or last year? Struggling but still found the speed to pass and drop Dungey, the eventual champ?
Describe this saga.
I think Chad is getting old, not the story.
But you would think he could still go fast for ONE LAP in practice to get a good time. But he can't even break into the Top 20. Being able to test now isn't magically going to make him go 3 seconds a lap faster.
Thank you sir
Pit Row
makes one little adjustment and then comes out and podiums haha.
its just reed.. thats how he works. and thats why Goose and him have stuck by each other for so long.
The knowledge Goose would have compared to every other mechanic in the pits is beyond.
As RC4 said.. them two together at there best, is the Dream Team Duo ahah.
I wont be surprised to see Reed podium end of this year.
typical reed fashion. every one counts him out and then all of a sudden he randomly pops up and decides to ride well..
As old and slow he can be.. You still just cant count him out.
Well, last week he was 14th, week before he was , 19th, this weekend , my guess is he qualifies straight from the heat race and finishes 12th in the main....would not be surprised if he breaks tho top ten however.
Once he starts getting a decent look in, the horns will come out...no more getting lapped for a start!
The AMA was considered just so out of reach of any of our riders, then Chad goes over there and suddenly he's beating RC and challenging for the championship in his first year.
Didnt hear much about his 125 championship the year before though because back then it was exceptionally difficult to get any coverage for the local scene let alone international. Was basically mates swapping movie files or DVDs and reading forums.
If we had the coverage we have these days over here, to witness an Aussie not only break into the series but to do it in the way he did, the MX scene over here would shit bricks.
But yeah, people who criticize him for what he is doing now are so dumb it actually physically hurts.
Go CR 22
Also, nicely done greenmx5
I agree with twotwosix
