That's right where I'd expect him to finish, all these people putting expectations on the guy like he's been training at the Farm or Baker Factory. Let's be happy for him that he's polished up (enough) to come back around the industry, and not have been a victim to addiction or the latter.
Let the man live his life, FFS - he's still faster than you've ever been.
Yup, hes right where he should be in that +25 class. Actually did better than i thought based on seeing some of his track videos.
8th place Forte will be at my house tomorrow morning doing our roof. He fell 3 times in the last Moto dropping him back to 12th and 8th OA. Hope he isn’t too sore
The Shop
His life doesn’t seem that bad lol
It almost doesn't matter how he got where he is, or how each of us got where we are in life.
We are where we are.
What matters most is where he, and each us, go from here.
I'm glad he's racing. I hope he does well!
Could you ask him about off the bike training? As a construction guy myself, I'm wondering how much I should be doing off the bike.
Construction here too. Most would think daily tasks would suffice with the stupid shit we do, but it doesn't.. When im trying to be better, i try to run atleast a 5k a day after work, even tho it blows. After a 8-12 hour day, its just as beneficial for mental strength as it is anything else, kinda like ice baths lol. Also been doing hip work daily with my daughter and ive noticed a huge difference in mobility. If youre in construction, strength usually isnt the issue, its oxygen n blood flow that holds us back.
Late boomer here...awaiting Jerry Reed's return.
I've been doing 45 minute bike rides 3 days a week for about a year and a half. I just wonder how much other construction guys do off the bike. If that guy is up there working with his helpers, I really doubt he needs to do much off the bike.
I ran flooring last week and I was pretty useless on the cycle, I wonder if I should have been resting instead.
I paint and bust my ass with my helpers. I set their pace. Lol. We paint new construction so where constantly moving. 2 coating up to a 4k sqft house in a single day. But i swear it doesn't help shit. I tried cycling and just didnt quite see the benefits i wanted. I started running, and freakin hate it because its hard, but the benefits are worth it. I could go do 30m on a bicycle n feel pretty decent. A 5k on foot around the 30 minute mark and i can feel ive worked. Started implementing a little heart rate training that was suggested by a buddy who does moto and just qualified yesterday for a triathlon in New Zealand. Hes a plus 30 guy that fought for his pro points a few years and gave it a go at a couple nats. Hes a determined dude. Mixing in real low but long heart rate stuff has shown good effects for me too.. look that up and on bust ass days at work come home and do a 120ish heart rate hour jog/walk/cycle. Easy on body but training lungs and hr.
Yeah! This man understands why we're here.
Spot on!
Love it when a JLAW thread pops up and all these haters come out and throw stones at him because he has a past. I bet all those throwing stones have a past too, it just isn’t publicized. Get off your high horse you think you are on.
Keep riding JLAW.
Paging Ryan Dungey …. Lorettas is calling!
we haven’t had a rivalry like that since ….. well then!
He looked plenty fast passing me in moto 3 whipping over the uphill triple yesterday. Haas, Brown, Harrison, and Hayes left the pack behind them when they rolled by me towards the end. All rode great all weekend. Echeconnee is a must for any who get a chance to go someday. Great race track!
Pit Row
I'd wait for Jerry before I'd wait for Elvis.
Is the Junior class the same as a novice out here or C class back east? Is he really racing a novice class?
Yeah, Haas/Brown/Lawrence/Harrison/Hayes etc. - all c-class.
What was the Mike Brown deal from last year about nationals after LL's this year?
A certain result in a certain class and he would ride some?
If I remember correctly, he mentioned that Loretta's this year would be his last and then he'd try to qualify for a national.
No. +25 is open to anyone. The sportsman classes are for anyone who has gotten 21st or worse at a pro national or never made a sx night show. All the vet classes at lorettas are mainly ex pro classes. Or at least for ex pros to win. Couple classes for your ex factory guys and a couple for guys who just didnt have what it took to get a factory ride. Lol
Paging Nico Izzi
someone check skid row
Any ex pro that has not raced in 3 years can race the 25+ class.
Didnt dungey take multiple years off then line back up for a national? Ya dont lose skill. Lol
