Love him or hate him you have to respect how he rides a dirtbike. It was an absolute thrill to watch him on a 125 and even still on a 450. Also, kudos to him for being his own man-doing what the hell he wants to do. Lot's of smack talk against him and he keeps on trucking.
Us fans should be lucky to have such a talented rider to watch. I'm glad he's finally back from injury and hope he fuckin tears it up out there and shows them guys how you ride a dirtbike beyond 100%.

Go big or go home.\..................gotta admire that attitude.
The 3 guys I have enjoyed watching the most over the past 18 years are MC, RC, and James Stewart. Each one of them has had the same presence in SX that Michael Jordan had when he played in the NBA. You always knew there was a chance you were/are going to see something special while they were out there.
However, the 2004 SX season was an amazing season because the racing between KW and CR was amazing. No MC AND no RC for the first time in 12 years. For the first time in 12 years the only thing missing was domination. Great racing!!
Now, here we are with the 2011 SX season. We have the current SX champ and 2 former SX champs ready to GO!!
RD has got to be feeling the pressure of being the champ and taking on a healthy Stewart and a hungry Stewart. A happy and seemingly rejuvinated and healthy Chad Reed, and a healthy RV who KNOWS he has the ability to beat RD. If we EVER wanted to know how well RD rides under pressure, I think tonight may be the night more than ever. I am purely speculating of course. I do not know RD or know how he feels exactly, but I am just trying to put myself in his shoes and think of how I would be feeling.
JS lost his #1 plate and seems as focussed and ready as I have seen him in a long time. That makes him extremely dangerous. I am not 100% expecting it, but it would not surprise me to see him go out tonight and lay down the wood.
CR seems as happy and focused as I have seen him since about 2004. Really excited to see him tonight.
RV has to be upset knowing he was making a run at the SX title last year and having won the majority of the races, I am sure he has a lot more confidence than he did going in to A1 in 09 and 10, BUT he has been a slow starter both of the previous 2 seasons. He usually doesn't get going until about round 3 or 4.
All we can do is speculate, but tonights A1 is going to be an outright brawl tonight I believe. SO many riders and for the 1st time in a long time, at least 4 or 5 guys that have the ability to win. BRING IT ON!!!!!!

Which also shows you how much greater the elite riders are.
Everyone loves seeing him ride and admiring his talent, which is why so many didn't like the SX only thing. He basically has turned a lot people off over the years.
You said it perfectly, we ARE lucky to have such a talented rider to watch. Now if we can work on the getting to watch him issue, things might be a whole lot better.
We've only been able to "watch" him 4 times in 19 months.......how often will we get to watch him between May-December 2011? ...and I don't mean on a Fuel TV reality show.
