I don't know about that enduro cross. In theory it seems like it could get real frustrating, real fast if you loose your groove. Clearly I've never done it though. Maybe it's fun.

Does not look fun to me.
RD5 continues to chug along. everyone thought KR94 was gonna dominate this year but hes had a real run of bad luck as of late.
got confirmation from my Parts rep...ive got NJ SX tickets coming. VIP tent and shit :woot:
RD5 is in the zone, in fact the whole red bull ktm team is. MM25 taking names in 250 as well.
Decotis is looking pretty good too. Pretty rad for a loc-dog to go all superstar and hang.
havent udated this in a while. as you know, RD5 wrapped up the championship a couple rounds ago.
totally new bike and definitely a new Dungey this year (aggressive).
it was fun watching the red bull boys (dungey and musquin) matching wins for several rounds
looking forward to NJ.
anyone else going down?
Will be there. Wife and I going
I haven't watched the last 4-5 rounds...the reason is funny..but unusual?
My dog for some reason mid season, started to freak out when I watched the races. Talking hiding trying to get away from the noise, chewing stuff , etc. I have no idea why...and why all of a sudden? MotoGP does the same thing.
That being said, I'm heading down to NJ for the day. What time you getting there? We have decent seats, and the pit party passes. Was thinking be at the joint by noon or slightly before, hobble around the pits, then grandstands for 2:30
Seems like we will be close, we are in section 135, row 34. I'll try to remember to bring my NESR sweatshirt, or wear some Orange KTM clothing
SX is coming to Foxboro in 2016. Date /time should be released on 5/2. :cheers:
--PRESS RELEASE FOR 2016 SX AT GILLETTE STADIUM--
Good afternoon Coach Bellichick will now take questions regarding next years race.
Bill do you think the AMA should allow two strokes to be the same displacement as four strokes?
You'd have to ask the league (I mean AMA) office about that. We'll run whatever is in the rule book.
Couldn't New England be cold and unpredictable?
I don't know we race in whatever the weather gives us.
How about the dirt?
It is what it is.
Do you miss southwick?
Sure lots of good battles, lots of good riders.
Should the ama come back to southwick?
You'd hand to ask the ama. We race where they tell us to.
How do you feel about last weeks race?
Could have coached better, rode better, prepped the bike better.
What part of the race would you have changed?
We had issues in all phases of the race: Starts, corners, jumps.
Did you make adjustments between the heat and the race?
We make adjustments all day long.
Some accuse you of running lower than recommended air pressure in your tires?
I don't know I am not the Mona Lisa Vito of knobby tires, much like Marisa Tomei's character was an expert in cars in My Cousin Vinnie.
Is anyone out for next weeks race?
We evaluate everyone daily. I haven't heard from Aldon Baker yet so you know what I know.
Do you think Roczen will be on the gate next week?
Yeah I don't know. Any other questions? Look we already covered that. Injury report I don't know whoever is healthy will race.
What's your thoughts on Seeley this year? Are you as impressed as others are?
He's a good rider, I just don't think after one season in 450 class we are ready to put him in the hall of fame.
Roger thought he had a good year do you disagree?
I can't speak to other peoples opinions.
How about the contact between Peick and Dungey this past race?
I don't think it was a penalty, just see at as 2 guys competin, trying to be in the same corner at the same time.
How about when Wes Welker jumped across Dungey?
That was unnecessary contact by the lapper on a defenseless jumper.
Should Stewart be banned all season?
You'd have to ask the ama office.
Do you see the 125 class making a comeback?
That's ridiculous.
How's Short?
I haven't talked to the asterisk medical crew yet.
Any idea what happened to Millsaps?
I have my own team to manage. Got a big race coming up next week.
How about Dungey's second?
Big race to prep for next week.
How did you feel about the afternoon main event?
We race when the ama tells us too.
Did you illegally tape team kawasaki at the Glen Helen practice?
Look all the teams were there taping. We didn't do anything any other team didn't do.
Do you think Jeff Alessi laser gate was accurately addressed?
The league made its decision. We have to move on.
How about the controversial photo finish last year?
We should be able to put 2 cameras on the finish line with all the money this sanctioning body makes. Seems easy enough.
Is Dungey the best you've ever managed?
Sure Dungey's a good rider, solid finisher, I think we all know that, but they are all professionals, I like his work ethic, he's always there at the end of the race, consistent, reliable.
How will you set up the bikes for the monster energy cup?
Monster Energy Cup? I'm just trying to get my team ready for next week's race it's too early to talk about that.
Any comment on the challenge of Musqin's bike?
Look the ama already measured the bore that the rules allow for a 250 I have to believe its a 250.
Any thoughts on Milsaps using PEDs?
I don't know about any PED's I am not a doctor, just a guy trying to manage my team. Jeez we already covered this.
Would you rather qualify second so that you can see where Tomac gates and then decide where to gate?
No we don't change our gate pick based on on where anyone else lines up. That's just ridiculous. You compete in the qualifiers for the best place you can put yourself on the gate.
What did you tell your guys when they had trouble adapting to last week's track?
Hey guys this track isn't anything we haven't seen before, no fancy schemes (dragon backs), no off cambers just do your job.
That it? Ok. Thanks.
Got my tickets :D
It looks like a whole bunch of us are going to be there. I'll be heading down with Ivan (pontifex) and should be there around 1:45. Do we want to do a assholes NESR hug and chug beforehand?
