Just 3 friends Jason Anderson, Matt Rice (photographer) and Tom Journet (film) having a good time in the summer. Team Fried just stands for having a good time.

Tom and Matt have been filming the journey since May this year (all the nationals). The vlogs give you a look behind the scenes of Jason Anderson and his friends, all funny stuff with the shit cam and some good mx clips. Thats basically Team Fried.

Here is there 'best of summer'

Lot of bitter in here towards our guys going over to get some prep in early.

I think they looked really good considering it was their first ride in the dutch sand!

You are right.

Msc Grevenbroich just posted a clip on facebook. Guys were flying.

I am too stupid to embed it though.

But the American MXoN Team trained there some years ago, you´re right about that.
Sorry I meant the track the Americans were riding on the 1st day.

You are correct! They were on the Grevenbroich winter track. Although in the summer it is not as difficult, they were having a good time in REAL SAND. Very nice talking to Zach and Jason, great guys; got some very interesting infos from the ridersSmile Also nice to meet the film crew. Almost makes me root for team USA instead of JH and Co.

I believe this is the same track but a few years back, Herlings riding a 250 & the track looks a lot heavier.

That’s Horst in Limburg. One of the heavier sandtracks in holland

They’re doing the right thing by being there early and I’m proud of them. Chasing settings on tracks unlike what they’ll be competing on seems strange though

Well, they Are riding Sand Tracks. Far better prep than staying at home, and just turning up a few days before the event.

Netherlanders here will know far better than I, but , to me, there isn't much chance of them riding on a track the same as what they'll be competing on. Assen, is a unique thing, and, No one gets to ride it unless it's while they are at a GP. That's a pretty handy leveler, as there's no real 'local knowledge' when it comes to Assen.

I'm sure those 2, and their friends and (in Zach's case, family) are having the time of their lives.

Whether or not Cooper spends enough valuable time with his Teammates, is a concern, him being on a Yamaha, and it's highly doubtful he'll get anywhere near the Ice One set up. When does he get to Europe?

There is a ONK race in Westerbork the week before Assen.. Rumor Goes they are competing in that race because the track is most similar to Assen..

What bitter words are you referring to? "Nuffsaid" seems to spew pessimism, but everything I'm reading from everyone else is very positive. Very positive from Americans and very positive from the Europeans. I'm not disputing you. I'm just saying that I'm seeing pretty much all good things from people about it. Or at least in this thread.

That's way cool, man. Great photos. I'm glad you got to meet those guys. Since you were able to see them practice in person, I'm guessing you've probably seen the top Euros ride that track in person. So what's your honest opinion on how Anderson and Osborn look in comparison to top Euros? In the last team fried video, Anderson and Osborn looked very fast, but that doesn't mean a lot since all elite riders look fast on anything. What's your opinion? I was just curious.

The track was still fairly smooth at most parts compared to this track when in real use. They looked ok. Some experts watching mentioned that Jason was "using too much clutch". After they were done I saw an out of shape Marcus Schiffer do a lap and he looked at least as fast. In December last year, when I trained there I met Jeffrey and man was he fast... but we all know that. Jason and Zach were using Euro bikes, which if I understood them correctly, have a longer front center and Zach complained about cornering with these bikes. Their US spec bikes, which are shorter for SX, were still in customs but would be released soon. I wonder if the shorter top tube will be of a benefit in the rough sand... I hope they will do well as they are great guys!
