We could post questions for GuyB to pick and ask at the press conferences for the 250 and 450 riders.

I think only one made the cut.

Correct.

Somehow, "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?" didn't make the cut.

With luck, we'll have some more serious questions directed at the people who actually make it to the podium...and not people who crashed out, or DNF'd.

Remember, some questions are good in a post-race setting. Some aren't. Try to keep in relation to the action that happened on the track that day.

We may have folks provide their real names, as well. Sometimes it's a little hard to take screen names (especially SOME screen names) seriously. Wink

Lol...I might as well have asked what's their favorite flavor of gum...no relevance to a post race interview whatsoever. Your job is safe Boss.

That’s the thing. If we can help boost the level of the questions that get presented to the riders in the post-race press conferences, the promoters (and I’d guess the riders) are open to it.

I don’t see everything that happens out there on the track. If there’s some undiscovered talent out there, I think it’d be cool for them to get a chance to participate.

I can ride a unicycle, have a titanic vocabulary of profanity, and can drink single malt nearly as good as a Scotsman...really useful talents at a party but I fear of no use in this situation.Sad

AP. With your off-road prowess, some tracks must be much more to your liking. I think by your results outside, I am correct. How long until you will arrive at any track, any weather and think, “I’m the man to beat”, and back it up to kind of a top podium man is here level? I think you are the “the next big thing” and will make the quantum leap from the 250 to 450. I know it’s been said to many before you who never, but you have some assets dude.
Get that top five money.

“Either first or you’re last”.
Loved the bellyflop, glad you didn’t get electrocuted.

Obviously my question never got asked. I just wanted Steve to please ask all the Lucas oil girls to please stop blowing my phone up at all hours of the night. Can't keep up the pace with like 9 of them.....sheesh!

I’m on the troll train, love oranges. But if you could bet on MX, I would bet on AP.
Like “Too Tall” but not too tall.

Wanna know if he feels the same way, I know what RC and The King would say immediately.

Having press conferences with the wrong people, that’s why I like The Matthes stuff.
To guy that came in 25,”how scared were you on LL, how puckered”?

Those are the interesting people.

Lol...yep. I threw some good stuff out there but they were suitable for a QnA but not post race interviews. Like Steve said...it has to be relevant to the day/race and those that actually make the podium. Not so easy when there are parameters to maintain.

So the most amazing thing just happened. I went to google and typed in Vital news thinking what could pop up that would be entertaining to post in this thread. Well this popped up.

https://www.vitalground.org/vital-news/

So I click on the link and this is what I see just in case you are too scared to click on it.
