Where's JLaw??? ; p
All this talent just sitting, I hope they all heal and get back to what they love - racing dirt bikes.
ya about Ryan Sipes and low blood sugar I had the same problem cause I dont eat sweets I am doing good now I drink a bottle MD 20/20 every morning , It is sugar water with achohol. I dont think his trainer will go with that though but it fixed me Hic,.......
J-Law is out of his mind for the rest of the season hanging with Hansen south of the boarder.
Too bad Trey is out. He made a very simple mistake. I hope he come back as hungry as he was this year.
GLAD RYAN SIPES IS OK. LOW BLOOD SUGAR IS WAY BETTER THAN MONO OR EPSTIEN BARR VIRUS!!! HOPE WE SEE HIM AT PALA. HE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE RIDERS!!!
Where's PING?
Will Cudby make the Baja ride in Oct?
I guess the tracks aren't to dangerous it's just racing. Ya okay
Hope all the boy's heal up fast..... I myself can't race Honeylake this weekend, Hemmroids are flaming and still feeling the effects from swallowing to much Copenhagen
J-law is chilling with me and we are riding till dusk everyday gettin ready for a 2012 SX comeback.
Ryan Sipes should ride! Can he ride? yes! so wtf? He just doesn't was to run around in tenth you know? haha what kind of motocrosser are you? Not tough obviously! Only want to race when MAX confidence only tells me how LITTLE confidence you have. A real racer would have geared up and finished that s%^t, not pick and choose when your perfect to go. What if everyone did that? Talk about slimming down- your a pro, you did it wrong and now you screw your sponsors and fans because you just don't feel like going out in one of the deepest fields and placing in a very respectable 10 or so position. Go take out Warton again for no reason fool.
J-Law... Screw everyone of those haters out there, man. I hope you are out there training everyday for the biggest come back ever, and running up front. Keep your head up, and hopefully off of the table. If you can run up front and enjoy that Northern Cali stickiest-of-the-icky, then more power to you. Most of you blokes that talk shit from California probably have your 'medical' clearance card anyway, so quit speaking with a forked tongue. Let a man, take his time away, and come how and when he wants to... If he let's it all go for nothing, then it's his decision and no one else's.
T Bone 102....... Santa Clause isn't real and j Law has a better shot at the tv show Intervention than a comeback.
@ Tooth Fairy
......you just verbally roosted the sh!% out of him! well said
@better..u are a sipes hater..he will ride at southwick..he doesnt need to ride when hes sick and crash and get hurt..he knows whats best ..not you...when you can ride one lap at his speed let us know..
Wasn't Hansen at X-Games throwing huge whips? Why is he sitting out after doing that! Or was that Tommy Searle probs was cause he wwwaaayy better!!!
GOOD LUCK RYAN MORAIS!!!!!!! YOUR BAD ASS
