If this rumor's correct, you'll find Zach Osborne back here next year, riding for the GEICO Honda squad.

Very cool!
I've always wondered......you always hear of the american going over seas to race and getting screwed out of money. Has zach had to deal with any of that?

I think I heard that somewhere a few weeks ago, but I thought it was just speculation. Seems like a good fit.

I would say it is true, they were courting him pretty heavy a few weeks back.

I heard from a close source, from PC (who was in the hunt to sign too), that it's a done deal, yes...

I forgot about the age limit. Probably a big factor in the decision to come back. Hope he kills it.

I was predicting PC but I'm happy it's Geico.
So Alias gear and Shoei helmets for Zach, huh?

Assuming the rumor is true, of course. We don't really know do we....

I was just told it's a 100 percent done deal now. He'll be here under the Gieco tent next year full time.

Seems like Geico is trying to lock down as much talent as they can before pro-circuit scoops them up.

It's been paying off nicely for them this year. PC isn't the same (utterly dominant) team this year that they've been in past years.
