He was so mad walking back. Understandably but man, even with a helmet on.

You guys still think it's worth it to buy the package? I've been waffling.

Baggett railing the outside to pass Tomac was fantastic. Also pretty surprising.

Gotta make sure it's clear of rocks so his front brake doesn't get messed up again.

Finally got a chance to watch the races from last weekend.

Jason Anderson is doing surprisingly well. He's just not quite as fast as Tomac or Baggett but fast enough that he could win this year, I think, if he keeps getting on the podium. Unless, of course, this was the return of Tomac in the second moto in which case RIP everyone else. But Tomac has been weirdly inconsistent and not at all the absolute firebreathing menace I thought he'd be.

I want to see Zach O on a 450 next year. Dude's just destroying everyone.

Why would Yamaha let him go? Only running two factory SX guys in Reed who's definitely not winning but I guess sells jerseys and then Webb who still seems like he has potential but needs another year or two to adapt to the 450s. And to not be injured. Is Reed going to be around next year? If not, who's Yamaha going to get to replace him that's better than AP?

Marvin's season is over, he should, for him, just stop racing and get his knee fixed and ready for SX. It's not the best result for his team, but they should take the long view, I would think as he has potential to win a SX title this year and at this point he's out of contention for MX.

That's the Tomac I expected to see.

RIP Musquin.

Excited about ZachO's inevitable move to 450s.

Webb's starting to look better too.

I am a simpleton so I like straight rhythm. Hopefully it’ll be more exciting than MEC (but still, good job Musquin - hopefully Tomac figures things out before the season starts).

Some pre-running footage here for this weekend.
