  coffee. It's going Yo man, you know just
• 1:32
  getting ready for the season, Mike season is here.
• 1:36
  It feels like it. You know, I think the last two
• 1:39
  weekends, there was a we were down in.
• 1:45
  I think that know the first was like a HR and met in Roblin
• 1:50
  which I miss very disappointed in.
• 1:53
  And then the week after was tell a dago, it we are which I miss
• 1:56
  but then world superbike started and so Oh, it definitely feels
• 2:01
  like, you know, I'm going to be putting on the helmet.
• 2:04
  Oh yeah. And and the Leathers soon I just
• 2:08
  like it because It's a live race.
• 2:12
  You know, even gotta watch, no, there's no reruns erisa, get
• 2:18
  some live racing going. So, now that some have started,
• 2:22
  you know, I feel like the seasons here, right, right.
• 2:24
  And I bring my my street bike out in March anyway.
• 2:28
  So it it's coming soon. Like I said, you ride all year
• 2:31
  round. It's my time to come back.
• 2:35
  Yeah, she pulled out. You pulled out the Suzuki.
• 2:40
  Yeah, team Suzuki. There you go.
• 2:42
  Definitely time. I'm ready.
• 2:45
  So I just can't wait, I'm really it's the street.
• 2:50
  Riding is kind of normal for me so I'm not.
• 2:53
  It's more like hitting the track that I'm that I'm excited about.
• 2:56
  Well it's hard for me to do like You know that I'm more into the
• 3:01
  sport now, more training towards getting ready for the season.
• 3:05
  So having a street bike I have to have one so I can you know,
• 3:10
  get on the street before I actually hit the track.
• 3:13
  No doubt, no doubt. So your I suspect.
• 3:17
  Your first round is going to be Loudoun in April.
• 3:21
  Yep. Praying for the good weather.
• 3:27
  It was always a if you want. Yeah, I don't think is it?
• 3:30
  What what what? What do you consider a good
• 3:32
  weather? Now at least in the 60s okay.
• 3:37
  Okay. All right, that's like like darn
• 3:40
  raced. At least at least okay, that's
• 3:44
  good to hope for April and October is like that.
• 3:48
  You have to cross your fingers. All right, well listen, I
• 3:50
  haven't gone too loud in it and it's been warm in April.
• 3:55
  So, You know, 50s, I mean, unless you're on the bike and
• 4:00
  you move and you don't notice I think it's really when you're
• 4:02
  like, kind of just hanging about.
• 4:03
  Yeah, and if you don't have a space where you can, you know,
• 4:07
  get warm easily, you know, that's it.
• 4:11
  But if you got a place we can get warm, it's not that bad and
• 4:13
  then you're on track, keep the adrenaline's going.
• 4:15
  So, It is what it is and if you get you know your fingers about
• 4:19
  my case, my fingers and toes will be cold so I just got go
• 4:24
  warm up. Yeah it's a I don't have a
• 4:27
  child. I have to send my truck or
• 4:29
  something but yeah hoping for the good weather but it'll be my
• 4:33
  first around April nice. Yeah.
• 4:37
  I mean I think you know I saw some folks from this side it
• 4:41
  down in Jennings getting some some sessions in So that's
• 4:47
  pretty cool you know? Yeah I wish I was a out riding
• 4:51
  already but you know based on what's happening this year my
• 4:54
  schedule I don't think I'm really going to ride until next
• 4:58
  month. Yeah my schedule is always tight
• 5:00
  but try to make room as much as I can no doubt it out.
• 5:04
  See how do I know you had some things you wanted to talk about
• 5:06
  as far as you know to the track and and and and that track
• 5:11
  thing. So let's look at the Go
• 5:17
  currently, we did some well yeah we can we can start with that.
• 5:23
  Yeah, so we had the two wheels and coffee first time first
• 5:27
  Meetup, which they really. We went to our rent and
• 5:32
  supercharged hit the go-karts. Did a few races.
• 5:37
  Got a couple Snippets online but it was fun.
• 5:39
  Yeah, it was fun. Definitely a little workout in
• 5:42
  the go-karts. Wish I had a little more speed
• 5:45
  and then but you know there's a lot of traffic there was a lot
• 5:50
  of traffic and I didn't realize until after my second race.
• 5:54
  I should be hitting the green button on the stand, they give
• 5:57
  you a little boost and I'll feed your own good and that would
• 6:01
  have saved be which the last race that helped and but that
• 6:05
  last race was the only I didn't get any footage of but I'm
• 6:10
  looking forward to going going back to to rent them and to go
• 6:14
  go-karting but it was pretty dope.
• 6:15
  A lot of people came out, you know, and show some love and got
• 6:19
  it got through their helmets on and you know screeching tires
• 6:24
  around the corner, you know you know running to you sideways and
• 6:27
  stuff like that. It's cool tracks a got two
• 6:31
  tracks there, you know, the slightly the same and little
• 6:35
  different Yeah. But I don't know.
• 6:38
  Which one is your favorite? I like both.
• 6:42
  I don't know. They're both pretty and I like I
• 6:45
  like track to just because it has like a fast, it's longer.
• 6:49
  It's so track to is longer and so you know but you know there's
• 6:54
  a lot of track. I don't give me a, give me a
• 6:56
  vehicle and give me a track. I'm not gonna tell you, I don't
• 6:58
  like it. Unless I have options of the
• 7:01
  track that the same day, but no it I started figuring.
• 7:06
  It out and like, I've only gone a couple.
• 7:08
  This is my second time, going to that going.
• 7:11
  And if I go a few more times and and, and figure it all out
• 7:14
  because I think I had, I got posted like, I had like, you
• 7:17
  know, one lap where everything was just right?
• 7:21
  And yeah, I was just like, oh, I had like six laps like this.
• 7:25
  What could I have done? Yeah I wish I had a solid lap.
• 7:30
  I found myself always squeaking by somebody.
• 7:33
  Yeah they tell you the flags and everything in the beginning.
• 7:36
  I was like, yeah, okay. I don't wish that, they'd be
• 7:39
  waving the flags like, hey, get out the way mass and that is
• 7:43
  like, right in a way using both lanes and everything.
• 7:46
  Yeah, you got to be a little bit aggressive at first, when I
• 7:49
  first started, I wasn't as aggressive, you know.
• 7:53
  And and you kind of have to because, you know, folks and not
• 7:57
  let you buy. They were not letting you
• 7:58
  borrow, you got to be aggressive.
• 8:00
  It was like, oh I got passed and I was like, oh okay.
• 8:03
  That's what I got to do. Hey, I was getting bumped by a
• 8:06
  guy. I'm like he have a go-kart
• 8:09
  faster than mine that was like in his way but I was pushing
• 8:12
  yeah I understand he spun me out I'm like why so ya gotta be
• 8:17
  aggressive go-karts so that was pretty dope man.
• 8:21
  Animal went to training a little bit of winter training, little
• 8:24
  bit of getting folks out getting some food and chatting it up and
• 8:28
  having a good time and talking some trash, there was some
• 8:30
  folks, they're talking trash. Oh yeah.
• 8:32
  We'll try to do it again pretty soon.
• 8:34
  So got you. So definitely keep it.
• 8:36
  For the next two, wheels and coffee meet up.
• 8:39
  I don't know if it's going to be go karts or don't acts.
• 8:42
  But there's going to be a meet-up, might be on two wheels
• 8:45
  might be at one that to, you know what I'm saying?
• 8:48
  And you might get some coffee. All right.
• 8:53
  So yeah. So now MotoGP time not MotoGP
• 8:56
  world superbike favorite our bars.
• 8:59
  Well known about MotoGP. No way.
• 9:02
  Yeah, no cameras allowed not until Till day one which is a
• 9:08
  few weeks away now World Superbikes pretty interesting.
• 9:13
  Yeah. So the first two rounds of
• 9:15
  happened Australia and then in Indonesia this this past weekend
• 9:22
  Alvaro Bautista is you know, didn't one number one did this
• 9:27
  thing in in Australia, that's another thing.
• 9:30
  Like we knew, what are you rocking them away in?
• 9:32
  Like, do you think your first race is like, your nerves is?
• 9:36
  Hi. Well, he's already a world title
• 9:41
  winner. I think was 250 and I believe he
• 9:45
  may have even won a couple of races in MotoGP.
• 9:49
  So I think for him and his experience.
• 9:54
  It's different. You know, I think for him is
• 9:57
  different and he as far as like handling the pressure, he's seem
• 10:02
  like he's just ready to go. Yeah.
• 10:04
  And here's a good bike underneath them.
• 10:06
  You know what I mean? So that that helps I mean, you
• 10:09
  know to you know to win in the rain on a duck.
• 10:15
  And you know, he was sideways at one point, you know?
• 10:18
  And you know and then to yeah to win all three down there.
• 10:23
  R. And that's a big statement for
• 10:26
  Jonathan. Ray who looks like he's
• 10:28
  struggling a little bit. All right, tap rack, it's
• 10:31
  looking good. Yeah, he's a struggle.
• 10:34
  The first first round. Yeah, I think he's, you know,
• 10:41
  it's like, you know, Magic Johnson and LeBron and, and, and
• 10:47
  Larry Bird, you know, meeting, you know, seeing Michael Jordan
• 10:53
  and saying, okay, He's on a different level, I think round
• 10:57
  one the show, the rest of the field like you got to run hard
• 11:03
  to beat Alvar this year and he you know I'm saying.
• 11:09
  And so I think and like especially after Indonesia this
• 11:14
  past weekend, I think that he you know, I think they there
• 11:19
  they got a little worried looking because I mean if Albert
• 11:22
  and crash out if because of John And Indonesia race.
• 11:25
  If you know, he didn't crash out of the Super Bowl, he might have
• 11:29
  one that to and and then what do you do?
• 11:33
  And he's, you know, he ran down his, his teammate this past
• 11:39
  weekend, but he did that, you know, he's so it's going to be
• 11:42
  interesting to see. I don't know who's going to step
• 11:44
  up and stop him. What do you think for me from
• 11:48
  race one? And it will talk about race was
• 11:50
  stopped? Yeah, I mean Top rock is by the
• 11:56
  the the one of the top candidates or Jonathan Ray.
• 12:00
  And I mean, it's like I said, it's hard to Ducatis there on
• 12:04
  another level right now, right? And me and I think he would be
• 12:09
  like, it says, it's a long season.
• 12:11
  There's always a lot of mistakes that you can run into not of
• 12:15
  your own, so a lot can happen and first race, you know,
• 12:21
  everyone has zero points. So It's a clean slate.
• 12:25
  You always want to come out strong, right?
• 12:27
  And the worst feeling is the person who has number one, gets
• 12:32
  the first, you know, it first in your like, geez.
• 12:35
  Yeah, that's already a tough fight from from already from
• 12:39
  Reese one, right? I will say this Remy Gardner
• 12:43
  looks good, Petrucci is lychee, looks good.
• 12:48
  I mean some may say he's riding a little you know, a little You
• 12:55
  see what he did in the rain, he was aggressive.
• 12:56
  Yeah, some may say he did that was good but I think he's coming
• 13:01
  from motor America and you ride that way in motor America,
• 13:07
  you're white, you're right that way.
• 13:08
  And be as be previous be more than motor America.
• 13:12
  Where I think in world superbike, you don't see, let me
• 13:17
  tap rack. Did it two people last year, you
• 13:20
  know, Marc Marquez has done it to people but generally Really,
• 13:23
  you don't see it and and whether he made a mistake or he did it
• 13:27
  deliberately, you know, Petrucci is generally a good.
• 13:31
  He's a good guy. So his intentions is, you know,
• 13:34
  I don't think his intent is to be an asshole, you know, but if
• 13:39
  you know might have been either a mistake or just the heart, it
• 13:43
  is what it is. If you got to like with the
• 13:45
  go-kart is like, if you see the space, you gotta go for it.
• 13:49
  Like that's what I like, you know, it's not going to show up
• 13:52
  again. This time around.
• 13:54
  So if you know, it's either go for it and hopefully it works
• 13:58
  out. Hopefully, six or You're Gonna
• 14:03
  Keep check being stuck behind a slow rider and lose intense
• 14:07
  along the way. Exactly.
• 14:09
  And, you know, so, you know, so it, you know, that it is what it
• 14:13
  is, I'll give him a pass because he is a good guy.
• 14:16
  He's a good guy and and Rama Gardener, like I said, he looks
• 14:20
  good, you know, ecola quo, no looks good.
• 14:23
  This is second year out on the Honda.
• 14:26
  Honda looks good in general, the BMW's look good Garrett girl off
• 14:32
  who switched from Yamaha to the BMW, you know, it looking good.
• 14:40
  You know I think the BMW I'm no expert but They're close by.
• 14:46
  It seems like there's still something missing and hopefully,
• 14:51
  they'll figure it out. We're at a Yamahas mean, they
• 14:55
  did. I mean, it's tough for the, for
• 14:57
  all other manufacturers, but I think like the Kawasakis and the
• 15:01
  Yamaha is a stronger overall, than the BMW still.
• 15:06
  And I think that but the BMW's close to Honda's close.
• 15:09
  I don't know. Which one you think is closer as
• 15:12
  far as, I mean, it's to, it mean, is this is Andres to this
• 15:15
  past weekend smiled, Honda is closer to me.
• 15:18
  Yeah, yeah. Like everyone still trying to
• 15:22
  have it figured out but seems like Bautista has it figured
• 15:25
  out? Yeah.
• 15:26
  Yeah, it's going to be tough. Like so I would, you didn't
• 15:31
  mention who would challenge him this this year.
• 15:35
  I think that are maybe I did. I think that Petrucci could
• 15:40
  challenge him? I think one of the newer Riders
• 15:43
  as possible because Cuz they just they young and they gun in
• 15:47
  for it. Jonathan Ray, he's trying and I
• 15:53
  don't, you know, he won 6 World titles, bang like six in a row
• 15:58
  and, and, and, and now he's, you know, he's runner up or he's
• 16:06
  fighting with two. But this year, he's not just
• 16:08
  fighting with to anymore. You know, this year's Rinaldi is
• 16:14
  what's the other Guy there on the, on the, on the, on the
• 16:17
  other doctor. I'll get his name in a little
• 16:21
  bit. You got, you got him that that's
• 16:24
  running. You know, so you got.
• 16:30
  Who else you like I said, equal glow.
• 16:31
  No, gardeners reading. Probably not.
• 16:36
  Girl off. He mentally.
• 16:39
  He, you know, from seeing what he's done.
• 16:43
  And train and I think he's ready.
• 16:46
  Yeah, it is basanti. Yes, ultrasonic.
• 16:49
  So yeah, basanti on a Ducati. So, you know, so I think you got
• 16:54
  some people that could step up that will be especially if they
• 16:57
  stay consistent, but Ray and top rock.
• 17:01
  Obviously those guys are hungry and, you know, we're going to
• 17:06
  see who's going to take the chances, right?
• 17:08
  Have they always started out at Phillip Island every year?
• 17:11
  I don't know about always. Because I don't know, I haven't,
• 17:16
  I guess I'm still new in the game so I haven't been to
• 17:18
  different tracks but if you draw like a seasoned with different
• 17:21
  tracks, I think some Riders maybe just slightly better at
• 17:25
  certain so for sure like that's that's a given like you're not,
• 17:28
  you're not gonna be your best. At every track, you're going to
• 17:32
  have tracks that you do really well at another something.
• 17:34
  You're going to struggle at least one or two, maybe more or
• 17:37
  even sex, you know. Like so that's going to happen.
• 17:40
  So for I'm sure for all these guys, when they go to European
• 17:43
  rounds. They going to be more
• 17:45
  comfortable because they probably hit those tracks.
• 17:47
  A lot more this past weekend in Indonesia was crazy because guys
• 17:53
  couldn't ride because of the food and their bellies and which
• 17:57
  is unfortunate, I think Gardner Miss Saturday race.
• 18:01
  There's another Rider that Miss sad that I missed out on a race.
• 18:06
  You know, that's crazy. I didn't I didn't hear about
• 18:10
  that. That that's crazy told.
• 18:12
  Ya, Indonesia and like something, like, it's going to
• 18:15
  happen. It's just a matter who gets who
• 18:18
  gets what people are going to get hit with it and, you know,
• 18:21
  which is, I don't know what you do in that situation.
• 18:23
  Do you just import your own? I don't worry, I don't know if
• 18:25
  it's from the water or from food, but if it's from the food,
• 18:29
  can't you like bring your own food?
• 18:31
  That's a saying or they can't. Yeah, fast.
• 18:35
  Food. Like the regular stuff.
• 18:36
  Yeah. So you know what I mean?
• 18:39
  So and it took some writers out that, you know, which is which
• 18:42
  is a big deal. But yeah, you know, Albert East
• 18:46
  is still leading after after this weekend he crashed out of
• 18:50
  the Super Bowl race but he did he One race one and raised to
• 18:56
  you know, Petrucci was the the satellite bike.
• 19:00
  You know, bad as unfortunate for him got into a tangle and
• 19:05
  superb. Delivers a Super Bowl raised and
• 19:08
  is also red flags. Super bold, red flag and race to
• 19:12
  add a red flag in it, but it's all about the Saturday race.
• 19:21
  Tap rack had Pole, right? Yeah, I believe he did and
• 19:27
  Bautista was was fighting behind.
• 19:29
  He took like a when he took one of the corners and finally got
• 19:34
  in front of tap rack. Back like, he was Ghost.
• 19:37
  Oh, yeah. It's like he had a five-second
• 19:40
  went margin. Yeah, like he was Ghost.
• 19:43
  Yes. Like there's they're in trouble.
• 19:47
  Yeah. Hey.
• 19:48
  They're gonna, they're gonna, you know, if he continues this
• 19:51
  way, it's going to be hard to beat them.
• 19:55
  But, you know, like I said, I think there's some dudes on some
• 19:57
  ducks that if they can get some clear air on the front and front
• 20:00
  of them as possible. I mean I think like, you know,
• 20:03
  God know. Hey he raced in MotoGP.
• 20:06
  So even though he's a rookie, he's not afraid of the speed and
• 20:09
  and you know, in the power especially colo-colo, no same
• 20:13
  deal. You know what I mean?
• 20:15
  Skywriting a couple guys got off the track on the side of a race.
• 20:20
  It's going to rain again mechanical issues.
• 20:23
  I believe I believe something's pissed.
• 20:25
  Yeah, he's pissed Tom Sykes, Tom Sykes, both both races, he
• 20:30
  pulled in. So something's going on with the
• 20:33
  car we he's running, you know, it's and this is first year back
• 20:38
  in world superbike after missing after racing BSB last year, so I
• 20:44
  got to be tough, you know, you're going to these places and
• 20:47
  you're not even racing and this is what you and you know, so I
• 20:50
  feel for Tom Sykes, that's That's tough and then decision
• 20:54
  to after like three four laps has gone by to just jump back
• 20:58
  out there. Yeah at that point they're
• 21:00
  trying probably figure something out on the bike, you know, which
• 21:03
  is I listen to their professional and they paid.
• 21:06
  So it's, you know, and you need information.
• 21:09
  So at the end of the day at that point you got to you kind of
• 21:13
  have to do that, you know? And you know, these guys are
• 21:17
  pretty good. And you know, when you can go
• 21:19
  out when you can have a bat, you look at In the super pole race
• 21:25
  today, Alex Lowe crashed out by ripped in half red flag because
• 21:34
  those oil because Johnston RI crashed out the next lap, and a
• 21:37
  red flag it. And then after that, he went out
• 21:40
  the erased. And on a second bike, which is
• 21:44
  rules are interested for interesting for world superbike
• 21:47
  because it's like you have one bite, but you can have a spare
• 21:49
  bike and, you know, Whatever the rules are him and Ray could use
• 21:55
  their bikes and go out and race and, you know, so that that
• 22:00
  mentality to be able to forget what just happened and go back
• 22:04
  out and race keep the same Pace. It's just what amazing?
• 22:08
  Yeah, that's amazing. Just the way they're riding to.
• 22:12
  They just the riding hard. Yeah.
• 22:15
  And one thing I do like about the world superbike is when you
• 22:19
  watch it. They show everybody.
• 22:23
  They showed front middle back, even in the race I saw yesterday
• 22:29
  Bautista is winning but I didn't see him at all, right?
• 22:33
  Well, yeah, because it's not that me.
• 22:34
  It wouldn't be interesting to show him bleeding.
• 22:36
  But, you know, there was showing all the fights and, and see, you
• 22:41
  know what, the manufacturers were with they're doing wouldn't
• 22:43
  put it out so, so yeah. Yeah, cool.
• 22:46
  Alex lows look very strong this year so we'll see what happens.
• 22:50
  He looks strong. He said today that as and who
• 22:57
  got into Alex, low flows and said.
• 22:59
  Yeah, so he he fractured his ankle and leg which is
• 23:04
  unfortunate because people dangled the legs that not me.
• 23:07
  But you know the professionals do you know they dangle a leg
• 23:10
  when they break. And so for to see somebody get
• 23:14
  hit with another bike that's like a first usually you know so
• 23:18
  there's almost freak things and I feel bad for him because He's
• 23:22
  a good writer and, you know, you know, you know, he's had just
• 23:26
  some bad luck and when did the dangles like come into play
• 23:30
  Valentino Rossi. I got all of a sudden it's it's
• 23:35
  a it's a new riding technique. It's got you from what he says
• 23:39
  is that it helps balance yourself.
• 23:43
  It helps him feel like he can break more when he does that.
• 23:48
  And maybe some people help. If the back gets light, you can
• 23:51
  add kind of control it and I get it come around on you, you know.
• 23:56
  So I haven't tried it deliberately careful when they
• 24:02
  go out might be another bike next year, right?
• 24:05
  So so that's unfortunate but it was it was you know a lot of
• 24:08
  good racing this weekend, shoutout to John McPhee who came
• 24:13
  over from 0 to 3 and now he's in row Supersport on a Cowley and
• 24:18
  you Took podium in a and Phillip Island.
• 24:23
  And then he I think he finished fifth.
• 24:26
  I don't know what he did. I don't know what he did today,
• 24:29
  but I think he's in the top eight or top 10 today, maybe I
• 24:33
  think he finished like six or something like that yesterday or
• 24:35
  something stare early stories and going on, you know.
• 24:38
  It yeah. Still raised him and, and and,
• 24:40
  you know, there's a lot of young cats and, you know, manzi is
• 24:43
  ripping up World. Super Sport.
• 24:46
  I listened at boys, whose he wants some Races last year on
• 24:49
  the Triumph but he's on, he's on a Yamaha this year, boys for ass
• 24:57
  boys fast you serious. I think bulaga who just he won
• 25:01
  his first race since 2019, struggling to say his name the
• 25:06
  other day. Yeah, he wanted.
• 25:09
  Was it on Saturday. He wanted yesterday won his
• 25:11
  first race on Saturday, you know, it is, you know, if you
• 25:16
  know, we're human beings man. And and it's Is didn't like when
• 25:19
  you see like a man of the people who when they haven't won for a
• 25:23
  while and then they went again, you know it's like when you're
• 25:26
  competing against folks as its that's good to see it.
• 25:29
  I saw it takes to so now he's got to win this.
• 25:33
  That's all he's going to fight for now.
• 25:34
  You know, he knows what it takes.
• 25:36
  Exactly. Exactly.
• 25:39
  He did. He did struggle today but you
• 25:42
  know it is you're not go in a mall and the title is all around
• 25:46
  and if you survive all the rounds and if You can get in the
• 25:49
  top, you know, for every round top five, every round, you give
• 25:54
  you give yourself a good chance of getting the title.
• 25:57
  Obviously it's nice when you just win them all.
• 25:59
  But you know these boys be rubbing paint.
• 26:01
  I just want that. It's never happened to me.
• 26:03
  I never been leaning and like bumped into somebody.
• 26:07
  You give it, give it time. This is Jesse allowed in here
• 26:13
  showing off his new Aprilia. 660.
• 26:15
  Yeah. He comes back in his left, wigs
• 26:18
  business. Buddy Ellison like by.
• 26:20
  What the hell happened? Yeah, just lean in the corner
• 26:23
  and just bumped into somebody and that's another level it.
• 26:28
  Italy. And then tight pack.
• 26:31
  It is, it is an unavoidable, they rev paint, you know, for 18
• 26:35
  laps 20 laps. Yeah, I mean the way they, where
• 26:38
  they pass out, you know, and how they pass it, you know, it's
• 26:44
  pretty amazing to see and especially in Indonesia, which
• 26:48
  is not a white rack, you know, they ate some of these guys,
• 26:53
  they make it look easy. Yeah, that's why.
• 26:55
  I was saying the first race when I went a park is leading.
• 27:00
  In and about teesta, do run to the front of him to take that
• 27:04
  lead. Yeah, that was a ballsy move and
• 27:09
  it was very early in the race to but once he did that is it's
• 27:13
  over. But they the race hard the
• 27:16
  movies they make is crazy. Yeah, I know it is it's pretty
• 27:19
  cool to see. And it did the level of ride in
• 27:22
  the level of the Riders. Even me, super sport is like the
• 27:28
  top, you know, I guess. To 15 Riders.
• 27:32
  But in world superbike I mean, the top guys are a lot, you
• 27:36
  know, it, you know, I mean a top 15 guys isn't really good
• 27:41
  writers, you know. So it's going to be fun to watch
• 27:44
  this here. And it's also like the fact that
• 27:47
  they're in is still Champions and they like, so Jonathan Ray.
• 27:50
  Yeah, but overall Champion the row.
• 27:53
  Yep, got a champion out there right now, so yeah, top Rex try.
• 27:57
  So he's not a one-and-done. Exactly.
• 27:59
  You know, I'm sure. Shout out to can on chew, he won
• 28:03
  his first world Supersport race. You know, he's been he's been on
• 28:09
  the podium a few times and you know that first place is eluded
• 28:13
  him but no more, you know, as you know and his brothers in
• 28:18
  moto3 Dennis aren't you twin brothers and Turkish.
• 28:23
  And you know, it's going to be like, but we're all super sport
• 28:27
  is is a lot of, you know, quick Riders.
• 28:30
  Characters, I'm characters. I gotta look up his name before
• 28:36
  I mess it up, but he was also really fast and he won his first
• 28:41
  race after a few years as well, he won Moto, he won a Super
• 28:45
  Sport, Bring back the brace to the bring about the brothers.
• 28:53
  I think it's just so interesting to have family member like
• 28:57
  participate with you. Like, what?
• 28:59
  I see brothers and sports or even sisters.
• 29:03
  Right? Like it's a beautiful thing.
• 29:06
  Oh, yeah, for sure. Just like, you know, like, Mark
• 29:09
  has Brothers it. Let me just pick on racing now,
• 29:12
  right. And what is the British
• 29:15
  Superbike Brothers? He's older women brother
• 29:18
  brothers and it's just like just to the just to have a riding
• 29:22
  buddy or partner to participate in sports and you guys can
• 29:26
  dominate it's good tight Frederick refer to recruit
• 29:30
  character Sulu. He won Super Sport today in
• 29:34
  Indonesia and on a Ducati. It's interesting.
• 29:37
  The triumphs and the Ducati is in the cowley's.
• 29:39
  It's yeah, well, suppose suppose fun to watch And I'm scream,
• 29:47
  like I said, he'll I love him, hit the rev limiter and just
• 29:50
  hitting the ball. Now the bikes just pushing to
• 29:54
  the Limit. No doubt.
• 29:57
  Yeah, it's amazing, you know, and it's there at the limit
• 30:03
  which is how you should be writing.
• 30:06
  So I think, you know, they, you know, they're all for a few
• 30:09
  weeks, they're going to be in the Dutch round and Aspen And
• 30:13
  it's a fun track, you know. So we got a little bit of ways,
• 30:18
  but MotoGP starts in a few weeks.
• 30:21
  I'm looking forward to that. Unfortunately, you know, no
• 30:25
  information, no information but keeping secrets.
• 30:30
  What do you think to Ducatis are going to run away with it?
• 30:32
  I think it's all Ducati spot. Why the keeping secrets?
• 30:36
  You think so? No it but I think yeah.
• 30:39
  Like I said, Ducati has eight bikes like the chances are very
• 30:45
  high. Everyone on the bike they have
• 30:47
  is really good writer, all right?
• 30:51
  Yeah, pretty much. I'm gonna, you know, it's gonna
• 30:53
  be interesting to see what Alex Mark has does.
• 30:55
  Because, you know, he was on a bike that was a problem.
• 31:00
  And now it's not. So, is he going to kind of have
• 31:03
  a breakout year? I don't think so.
• 31:06
  Or is he going to struggle? I bazin.
• 31:08
  Well, I think, I don't know. I don't think it's gonna break
• 31:10
  out here. Okay, I think your Phantom
• 31:13
  Market, Alex, Marquez more than me.
• 31:15
  I just don't think I can do it. Well, I wouldn't say that.
• 31:19
  I'm just, you know, it's he's not his brother and, you know,
• 31:23
  his brothers won, eight World titles, right?
• 31:26
  He's not the right of his brother, but at the same time,
• 31:29
  he didn't get there because of his brother, he still got, you
• 31:33
  know, I mean, so I give him that and You know, when you have like
• 31:38
  a Fabio Decker is the only guy in Yamaha that can ride it.
• 31:42
  When you got like Marquez Marc Marquez, only guy in Jama and
• 31:46
  Honda that can ride it. That's a problem.
• 31:49
  You know I'm saying? You look at Ducati, result could
• 31:52
  be fast, Martine could be fast, Luca could be fast, but sexy,
• 31:57
  all of them could be fast. Only person that really
• 31:59
  struggled was the Jen Antonio but he's a rook.
• 32:03
  No, he was a rookie last year. Tell you anything.
• 32:07
  It's like a setup though. So you jump on the bike and
• 32:10
  you're like oh this doesn't work this what this does make fair.
• 32:13
  So they make the bike fit you, right?
• 32:16
  And then you make it run the fastest and then I like, all
• 32:18
  right this is the style we. Well not everyone can ride that
• 32:22
  correct? And that was the problem and I
• 32:24
  think that's what Honda and Yamaha are dealing with.
• 32:29
  Right now. There's a thing that Ducati just
• 32:31
  well MotoGP came out on Ducati and one of the things that they
• 32:35
  say Is we used to listen to One Rider but now we listen to every
• 32:40
  Rider and that's why, you know, 87 different guys can be fast on
• 32:46
  their bikes because they're taking input to make it a bike.
• 32:48
  That's better for a lot of different writers versus, you
• 32:52
  know. Okay.
• 32:53
  Let's just, you know, make the bike for this one, right?
• 32:57
  And all these two Riders. So that's big on Ducatis part
• 33:00
  for doing that. And I think that you're going to
• 33:03
  see Honda and Yamaha start to do the same thing.
• 33:08
  I think that KTM is in a good spot, but, you know, I would
• 33:13
  suspect that if Ducati runs away with it this year regardless of
• 33:20
  who wins it. If it's on a Ducati bike, at the
• 33:24
  end of the season, you're going to find Honda have more
• 33:26
  satellite teams and you going to find even the other
• 33:29
  manufacturers have more because they acted.
• 33:34
  The hardest part for Ducati is going to be how do we keep
• 33:39
  signing these Riders that's going to be the hardest part
• 33:42
  because when you have all you got seven guys, could that could
• 33:45
  fight for a championship or now six because I'm not going to put
• 33:48
  Alex Marquez in that yet, right? When you got, when you got six
• 33:52
  guys, that could be fighting for a championship, but I do believe
• 33:54
  zocco could still win a championship, like, you know,
• 34:00
  how do you, how do you keep them happy?
• 34:02
  You know what I mean? And especially, Only two,
• 34:03
  there's only two red, you know there's only two red bikes, you
• 34:07
  know. So that's going to be the hard
• 34:10
  part for them. But if that crew stays together
• 34:12
  for the next three to five years where they sound like to
• 34:15
  two-year contracts, right? Correct.
• 34:17
  Yeah. So if they stay together, like
• 34:20
  Ducati could have eight championships and you know I'm
• 34:23
  saying 628 championships if they keep them Riders and they going
• 34:28
  to keep bringing New Riders in because the Valentino Rossi
• 34:32
  machine, And and what Yamaha, and all these folks are doing
• 34:35
  with these motor two riders in these writings coming up.
• 34:38
  Now a lot of these writers got all, you know, a lot of these
• 34:43
  writers and moto2, can come to MotoGP and and win because we're
• 34:48
  that's what we've seen in the last you know Fabio rins you
• 34:53
  know Petco how about? It's all about the timing though
• 34:56
  you know like it's like what year you want to go in, right?
• 35:00
  Like the contracts for the GP writers like Remy Garner jumped
• 35:05
  in one year is gone. I think yeah gardeners issue was
• 35:10
  was a weird one. It sounds like Tech 3 didn't
• 35:13
  want them, but I don't know. I like I'm a fan of the tech 3
• 35:17
  but like I also didn't like no other spaces available.
• 35:20
  American manufacturers is Yuki backed out.
• 35:22
  Yeah. So you know you losing bikes and
• 35:25
  but I don't like what I cheated Luca either, you know, say
• 35:28
  equally Kelowna like that treated him either and and Remy
• 35:31
  Gardener so it It, you know, I don't know what's going on there
• 35:36
  but he's in Superbike now and it is what it is.
• 35:39
  But I think if you're a man, if you're a team and you sign a guy
• 35:43
  for two years and he and he has one year and it's not up to your
• 35:48
  par. You should still give the guy a
• 35:49
  shot for another year. Because obviously, whatever you
• 35:52
  seen in the past made you believe it and maybe and like
• 35:57
  it's like KTM right now. The bike is probably as best as
• 36:02
  it's ever been. But it's not a Ducati, right?
• 36:06
  And up until the Honda started being bad, it wasn't a Honda,
• 36:10
  right? So all our Yamaha, right?
• 36:12
  So you know what I'm saying? So KTM like chances are it's the
• 36:18
  bike, not the writers, you know I'm saying where you can look at
• 36:22
  like a duck or I mean in and Yamahas case.
• 36:25
  It doesn't have the power. So and is only one Rider but I
• 36:29
  think in KTMs case, this is like they should have given him more
• 36:32
  time. That, you know, they should have
• 36:34
  given more time and they didn't do that.
• 36:36
  And that's the part. That's Yeah, it sucks.
• 36:39
  So like motive to Rider with, you know, like you said, a lot
• 36:42
  of them are ready for MotoGP. Yeah, so when is the right time
• 36:46
  to go up because if you jump up to MotoGP and then one year
• 36:50
  you're gone like and less what, you know, that's Joe Roberts
• 36:54
  right there mobile to like I think same low is went to my GP
• 36:57
  back tomorrow to correct because of the appropriate for your gave
• 37:01
  him one year. And and in that then sent them
• 37:03
  back. I'm gonna probably the prettiest
• 37:05
  wasn't that good back then and and you know, it is and you look
• 37:10
  at Joe Roberts and he didn't, he decided not to take their pull,
• 37:14
  your offer and other modal two guys decided not to and it was
• 37:21
  the year that you know that all year later that Alex my LH did
• 37:27
  what he did on the Aprilia but nonetheless, you know, so there
• 37:31
  are guys that are saying, hey, no, no, I'm not jumping on the
• 37:33
  bed bike but you know, other like I think in God, And raoul's
• 37:39
  case. He was stuck with a two-year
• 37:44
  contract and they just bumped him on that two-year contract.
• 37:47
  That's why you saw once. His contract was up, he was
• 37:50
  Ghost. He's like, I'm going, I'm going
• 37:51
  to Aprilia. This is where I wanted to be in
• 37:53
  the first place but y'all wouldn't let me go and so forth
• 37:56
  and you know, so like moto3 you can age outright, can you age
• 38:02
  out moto2? That, I don't know that.
• 38:04
  I don't know, I think chances, I mean, Yeah, I don't know what I
• 38:09
  would have to check that out and see ya.
• 38:11
  So John McPhee aged out at age 27 and so he had to go to world
• 38:16
  superbike but I don't know what the limit is for Moto 2.
• 38:21
  As I know, they try to shuffle Riders around, obviously you
• 38:23
  want to keep the best competition, but for someone
• 38:26
  who's like, wants to get to moto to 32 or GP, like, you know, you
• 38:31
  gotta get your chance when space is available, but if no one else
• 38:36
  moves. Well, that's gonna I say that's
• 38:38
  the tricky part because you know once upon a time you know
• 38:42
  writers will get like 12 years in MotoGP and we're through
• 38:46
  injuries or a better Rider coming out or whatever.
• 38:49
  Didn't really last that long I mean you got you had the Edwards
• 38:52
  obviously had Nicky Hayden yet. Rossi you had Pedroza but then
• 38:57
  there's a lot of other guys that you know, they weren't there
• 38:59
  that long, you know what I mean? And so I mean just like
• 39:02
  basketball football is there's some people that come and get a
• 39:05
  year or two and injuries or what have you they don't make It but
• 39:08
  recent strong said that. Yeah, but but recently, you
• 39:12
  know, like 2016 17, the caliber of writers have been coming out
• 39:18
  of motor to going into MotoGP, like, all of them are really
• 39:21
  still there, you know? I mean a and and so they've in
• 39:25
  this still young Reigns has been in MotoGP for a while now, and
• 39:29
  Markel. Yeah, yeah, Marquez is the elder
• 39:31
  man. Now, you know I'm saying?
• 39:33
  Miller Frosty, just laughs. Yeah, you know, so You know H.
• 39:38
  Yeah la. So these guys like the NBA and
• 39:42
  other sports like you know folks taking care of their bodies,
• 39:45
  better eating better trained in different ways to stay healthy
• 39:50
  Technologies, keeping them safer.
• 39:53
  So they're not jacking themselves up as much and if the
• 39:56
  bikes are better than crashing as often as they used to.
• 39:59
  So that's also a plus so these guys are staying longer so
• 40:03
  that's the problem. But moto2, right now there's a
• 40:06
  lot of guys That they're probably like, five six guys
• 40:08
  that were probably ready at the end of last season, but there
• 40:10
  was no space for them, you know, and this year.
• 40:16
  Who they gonna get rid of? I mean like who would you get
• 40:19
  rid of it? MotoGP identity here.
• 40:21
  I mean talking not kagame, maybe I'm still rooting for him to get
• 40:26
  home. Or he's just he's just like
• 40:31
  who'd you get rid of like you know, at this point in time
• 40:34
  who's the like The Young Riders are the ones that are in the
• 40:37
  back it before, it used to be the old rags in the back right
• 40:41
  now. It's the now it's the rookies
• 40:43
  and those guys that are in the back So, you know it's gonna be
• 40:47
  like who'd you get rid of so and you got guys that want to come
• 40:50
  up. So you know this why beaubier
• 40:53
  was like I'm done. There's no chance it's gonna
• 40:57
  take too long. Well I don't know why he left.
• 40:59
  I know he's having a child and wanted to be back in the States,
• 41:03
  but she's always trying to make sense of it, you know.
• 41:06
  I don't know. I mean, I'm glad that girl off
• 41:08
  is run in. I'm glad that Roberts is
• 41:10
  running, you know. It definitely be nice to see
• 41:13
  more folks from the US and In Moto, in MotoGP, in general.
• 41:19
  And I know the u.s. is working on that.
• 41:21
  So I think you're going to see more Riders, going over between
• 41:24
  World Super Sport and between world superbike and MotoGP and
• 41:29
  even BSB and stuff like that. So, you know, and we know a lot
• 41:34
  of Young Writers here. So it's just that, you know,
• 41:36
  that our motor America that could possibly make it over two
• 41:39
  Moto's to world, superbike all MotoGP.
• 41:41
  So, you know, but, you know, it's You know, not everybody
• 41:47
  gets the opportunity to go to MotoGP world superbike NFL NBA,
• 41:55
  you know, but we don't know why people that are really good in
• 41:58
  this sport, you know, walk away at the level, you know, I don't
• 42:03
  know if it he consider himself at the peak of his career but
• 42:07
  he's competitive, you know, he's less than a half a second.
• 42:10
  You know, from the top guys, I mean, that's you know, right?
• 42:15
  So it Oh, it's I don't know why you know, and obviously they got
• 42:19
  their reasons to do it but it's one of those things that it's
• 42:23
  not like I think maybe we like chess and these other sports,
• 42:26
  you know, when you're older you can come back into it.
• 42:29
  You can't go back into MotoGP, you know unless you buy your way
• 42:33
  in and these things and be at that level, you know, random
• 42:37
  level. Yeah.
• 42:38
  You know. So it you know it is what it is
• 42:40
  but I know he was I know he he had a talent.
• 42:45
  I mean who am I But you know, from the races are sitting, I
• 42:47
  know he has the talent whether it was the bike underneath them
• 42:50
  or or whatever the case may be, he wasn't slow.
• 42:55
  So what MotoGP needs to do is they need to just figure out a
• 43:01
  way to bring every manufacturer and you see BMW Kawasaki and
• 43:06
  Suzuki knees come back. Yeah, they got it.
• 43:09
  That'll free up. More space has more Riders.
• 43:11
  Yeah, there's some board will girl.
• 43:13
  Yeah, I'm making Saturday races now.
• 43:15
  Hm. So I don't know how to do that.
• 43:19
  Yeah I mean but that would be nice to see BMW in MotoGP.
• 43:25
  The Kawasaki you know. So when is more manufacturers
• 43:30
  it's just more fun to watch that too.
• 43:33
  Yeah but you know when you know like watching a to cut if it was
• 43:37
  all just Ducatis so it's always it's always just watching
• 43:41
  MotoGP. Just Ducati 21 Ducati.
• 43:46
  So that's You know I mean which on one hand it'll be interesting
• 43:50
  because they're all of the same manufacturer because then it
• 43:52
  comes down to the rider. But I having this, you know,
• 43:56
  it's weird how we gravitate certain manufacturers.
• 44:00
  You don't saying you know people love the.
• 44:03
  This is ookies, people love to Yamahas people.
• 44:05
  Loved it to God. He's I don't know how that
• 44:08
  happens, you know, where we just born on different days of the
• 44:11
  week and depend on the day of the week.
• 44:13
  You know, this is the manufacture you gravitate to so
• 44:16
  it's tough. When if you have a if you have a
• 44:19
  brand that you love and you're into a motorcycle race and but
• 44:23
  you can't watch that brand. Exactly.
• 44:25
  You know you can't root for that brand.
• 44:27
  Somebody put a sticker on used to kid and it's like this is the
• 44:31
  one you know Honda Fit first your life.
• 44:37
  Yeah no it's guess this happens you know it's we're all built
• 44:42
  differently man. That's the crazy part and these
• 44:44
  bikes you know they're all on two wheels.
• 44:47
  But they all feel a little different so and and you know,
• 44:50
  if I don't know if his what you ride first or is this what you
• 44:54
  grew up liking? So I mean because I it's not you
• 44:57
  end up liking bikes before you actually ride one.
• 45:00
  I mean, unless you're fortunate enough to be thrown on a bike at
• 45:03
  a young age when I was a kid, it was the green and black bikes.
• 45:05
  Now, when I grow up like, oh, that's the Kawasaki, you know, I
• 45:09
  grew up like a Suzuki so you know.
• 45:11
  And that's the thing is funny. I my first bike was a cow.
• 45:13
  We believe it or not and carry green.
• 45:18
  Yeah, cuz that yeah, I did, you know, I mean it was either, you
• 45:23
  know, at the time you know, the R6 wasn't a thing at the time.
• 45:27
  That's not long ago that was, but it was out, but it wasn't a
• 45:32
  thing like it became. But yeah.
• 45:36
  So but it didn't stick. I mean, infamy.
• 45:39
  Do I like, you know, I like all the Brand's, you know what I
• 45:42
  mean? As you see, I have a bunch of
• 45:44
  different brands and I can fall different.
• 45:46
  Reasons. And so there's that and then
• 45:50
  there's people that just, you just like your brand and you rep
• 45:52
  your brand. Yeah, I ripped my brand, I like
• 45:55
  it. I've been on a lot of different
• 45:58
  street bikes Suzuki comforts me the most, but with the track
• 46:02
  that you said, I bred into the Yamaha and is when I started
• 46:05
  with. So yeah.
• 46:06
  But I'm a fan of Yamaha as well, use them to you.
• 46:09
  So like now like where I go to track my gr6, baby.
• 46:15
  Well, you know, it's If you have the opportunity to ride
• 46:19
  different manufacturers, I will try.
• 46:21
  That's the best way because then you'll know for sure because
• 46:24
  then you'll know why somebody likes a Yamaha.
• 46:26
  You know why somebody likes to BMW, you know, you will know
• 46:29
  whether that's for you. That's at least you'll get a
• 46:32
  better understanding, you know, because they all they all feel a
• 46:34
  little different. Oh yeah.
• 46:36
  So it's a little different feel different and you know, that's
• 46:39
  the beautiful thing about it. So my name is Rex, 45 is to be
