He will be a consistent top 10 guy. Hopefully he can stay healthy. It seems everytime he starts to improve he gets hurt

Well there was no title contender that would've been available. They already have the 3rd best guy in Marvin, only Roczen and Tomac are better.
Next year will be big.
Current fleet of two wheeled vehicles:
- Yamaha YZ450F 2020
- Suzuki GSX-R 600 K7 track spec
- Canyon Sender CF 8.0 2018 Downhill
- White GX Pro 20 Gravel
Will be interesting to see if becoming a Baker Boy will improve his results, i hope so...Tickle is a good dude.

Good signing. Tickle reminds me a lot of Metty in the fact that he seems to hover around that top 5 spot more often than not when healthy.

I think this will be very interesting. See if KTM and their amazing program and Baker can make a champion out of a him. I hope he does well
First of all, Marvin is definitely a title contender and has been since the beginning. He's got a big AMA championship coming to him soon, I'd bet.
I'm interested to see if Broc does well under Aldon. He seems to me more like a "natural talent" kind of rider than a training maniac. Maybe I'm wrong, but I bet we'll see an even better #20 next year.
Braaapin' aint easy.
Finally, no big surprise here, this is old news now.
I want some news on the REAL race bike, the 2018.5 Factory Edition. There are way too many people keeping secrets on this one, somebody give up at least some spy photos dammit.
nothing bad here.... good fit with the team, hope he can gel with the bike, and get the results he has always been capable of.
The only exercise i get these days, is shaking my head in disbelief
Good move for everyone involved. If you're looking for someone to just put in consistent solid results week in, week out, then no one fits that role better than Broc Tickle. Pleased for him
Tickle will do really well with Baker (probably what he needs most is structure and confidence) I think Marvins window is shrinking for a title as I feel he seems to struggle under title pressure, (hope i'm wrong) but ET3, Baggett, JA21 all seem to flow better under pressure.

He's already a consistent top 10 guy?
well this will be the real test for bakers critics and arguably so...........Tickle has all the ingredients and the foundation IMO.........if Baker can turn him into a champion or at least serious championship contender THAT will be the answer!!
Word on the street is the dude is an animal when it comes to training. Now he will have an all encompassing training program and get to latch on to Marv and Jason everyday. Tickle is gonna come in with some confidence and I honestly expect him to be seeing a lot of Seely next year.
Tickle had a solid year, I am thinking he even takes it up another level this year while riding orange. Big fan, hope him and Marvin kick some ass in sx '18.

Would of been better trying to get one of the upcoming 250 riders on board.
Tickle has no room for improvement.

I agree. My only idea would be to take a gamble on a 250 guy like Plessinger or AC and hope they excel on the 450 moreso than they do on a 250. Outside of that, it's really quite difficult to get a 450 proven guy to switch. I bet Tomac stays green for the rest of his career.

Settle down dood. You Orange Brigade Commies are an eager beaver bunch. Paint not even dry on the 2018's.
