‘I don’t buy it was for…’ ‘he had to go to Baker’s cause he’s only won once this year’
thats you making it into something it isn’t. The only thing that’s changed is where sextons practice bikes are. He can ride at aldons. He can ride at sandbox or where ever the hell else he wants too. He’s still posting gym workouts that aren’t at baker’s
After how much money ktm has put into that facility for Aldon and the amount they pay him for a retainer fee so no other team gets him is crazy. So I wouldn’t be surprised someone is getting a kick back.
The guys at Sandbox made it sound like Chase and Vialle did not have an option.
I know Kenny like riding with Chase at Sandbox. They have a pretty good crew there.
I believe that is the time frame yes, also remember Chad and Ellie talking about him back in 05'ish and being skinnier and if that was better or not. Just fun speculation in the end but in my opinion Sextons body type is beneficial to the heavy hits etc that our sport gives out.
The Shop
Exactly. Plus, Sexton has been dealt with a messed-up hand before Glendale and performed well considering and Vialle is riding great. Comments like the one that guy made really makes you wonder if he and others are just trying to be a turd or are they that clueless.
Dude, you are really overreaching here. I get being devil's advocate on a forum to be cool and all. But good grief.
Forget titles, Webb hasn’t even won a 450 main without Aldon as his trainer
He won A2
Your both right.
Plot twist
Not this shit again.
Absolutely nothing wrong with Aldons program, he just got too much credit for what the riders did.
If he had Jett, the mystique would still be there.
Truth hurts.
What am I overreaching about? You don't think it's news that one of the best riders on the planet who just joined a new team changed his primary riding facility mid season? So if Eli all of the sudden moved to Club MX that's not worthy to talk about?
possibly your claim that it's because of results....that can be considered an overreach...
Maybe Peter Park is just too busy training Ellen Degeneres.
Nothing wrong if you're already fast as hell and you have your bike setup figured out.
Everything wrong if you need to test and actually want to improve technique instead of just pounding motos/miles on the bike/hours in the gym.
I didn't claim that, I said it was possible. It's all speculation.
Pit Row
I’ve said this for years, he’s a trainer, not a coach.
If I remember right, RC never let Aldon near the on-the-bike portion of his program. That was RC, Jeannie, and Oshow’s domain. Aldon was off the bike only.
I've seen plenty of clips of him telling riders how to ride. Hell, he was taling to a motogp rider (Davizioso, I think) a few years ago and made some comments to him about riding. Fucking ridiculous.
I could use some of that $30,000 supplement package
Ummm Webb x2
As where he should be. The guy is a fitness trainer, not a riding coach. Keep him away from the tracks like he was with RC.
Brady [player] went to Tampa Bay and won a Superbowl without Belichick [coach]. Meanwhile New England went in the tank and the affable coach is out of the NFL
Have you looked into the salary cap issues they were having? It was more than just Tom leaving.
You're right I forgot about Gronk leaving 🙂 Cap numbers are always massaged in the NFL and contracts can be turned into signing bonuses and other tricks skirting the cap issue.
Bill had an awesome run but it's time to go. It happened to Tom Landry, Chuck Knoll, Don Shula, etc... all great coaches but the losses started piling up at the end
I don't understand why we all make wild assumptions of the financial dealings in this sport when nothing is ever in black or white. I don't think in 45 years of following this sport I have read anything but vague references to what riders make, let alone Aldon Baker. I don't think anybody has ever documented whether Austria, or the riders pay Aldon, or what share, or how much. It is all assumptions, hints, clues, and bullshit, nobody not in the know is certain.
It's best to take posts as graffiti not Bible verses 🙂
This just looks bad on Ktm imo. It looks like they told him no aldon would be fine but knew the whole time they’d make him go there.
Post a reply to: Sexton to Baker's Factory??
