Watching you and MC battle back in the day was what hooked me for life. I got to see you guys in New Orleans back in the late 90’s. Is there any hope for a return to New Orleans in the future?
I remember 97’ and 98’ almost like it was yesterday. In 98’ do you feel like people discounted your abilities over McGrath’s?
Looking forward to the SX season.
What's your take on the PED talk going on? Does motocross have a problem?
Also; do you have something in your current announcing contract, like a "don't get hurt" clause? I wondered, because any time you ride a dirt bike, you risk injury, so I wasn't sure if your current gig was trying to keep you un-injured, or if they just left you completely alone on that front.
thanks

Do you have any fond memories of Saturday night races at 59th & Douglas?
Well, this year the event is March 17th, so it should be right in the thick of it!
Happy Holidays!
Thanks!
Couple of questions:
1. What are your thoughts on the new points system/format of the 18' SX season?
2. How the hell do you stay so lean? Curious about your daily routine in exercise & diet-
You rode some of the gnarliest SX tracks throughout your career. What is your opinion on the track designs of to day? and do you have a particular retro sx track that you would like to see the riders race on today?
Also not to bring up bad memories, But how did you crash at glen helen all those years ago? I remember my buddy saying you went down on the huge tabletop in the back.. But he never said how or what happend to cause the crash.
Always been a big fan, I especially thought you looked great on that YZ125 back in the day. Loved your smooth, loose flow style.. and as they say here on Vital.. "You look comfortable".
My question is, are riders thankful for or more dreadful of Social Media? or maybe both? It sure seems to keep riders under the microscope at all times. It seems that unless you have a compound to hide out in, everyone knows what you're doing at almost all times. Do you see it as a positive or an added pressure, taking some of the fun out of the racing life? I guess what I'm asking is, are the Hotels left in better shape these days because Social Media is keeping everyone on their best behavior?
Sig. Anyways your the man and keep it up!

Really enjoyed the day, you were a total legend and it was pretty epic riding on track with RC, Stanton and Yourself. Cheers mate, big fan!
That was a great bike! The team worked hard on getting that thing preforming like it did.
Best regards.

1997 SR250 Kawasaki. Epic.
Best regards.
I would agree. There are a bunch of races that I can remember details from. I find it interesting though. I can remember shit that happened like 20 years ago, but I can't remember to pick up cat food from the store!
All the best!
Those games back in the days were great! I have very little involvement with the new game. I did some voice over work for the trailer but thats it. The game will have Ralph's race call throughout so it should be epic!
Thanks for the questions. Best regards.
You're right. I guess my pronunciation comes from my dad 40 years ago! Through my work as a brand ambassador with Husqvarna, I have been told the authentic Swedish way, but I can never get it out that way. Old dog, old tricks I guess.
Best regards.
As difficult as it was, I really enjoyed racing against Doug Henry. Our battle for the 1993 AMA 125 MX Championship was legendary. I did and still have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for Doug. I had a chance to catch up with him at a race in England a few months back.
All the best!
Jeremy Albrecht was a pretty good rider in his day! That start at Ponca was pretty dangerous, I had multiple crashes it that turn throughout my career....
Thanks for the kind words...
Thanks for the kind words!
Happy Holidays!
Yep there were some crazy parties back in the days... Shhhh. Haha!
All the best.
