    I find it humorous that they refer to the riders placement on screen (R C or L) as opposed to number as other publications do.

    You can lease a bike, if you have enough money(i.e. Team Roberts).

    Alex covered it. A lot of the guys have either huge pucks or two sets glued/screwed togther during the wet races.
