He was on the news tonight. Sad, as he's still the best when he puts his head down, but you have to understand and I wish him well.
You don't get to be an old dog without learning a few tricks.
Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!
he sure is a machine! i admire him for his racing and his big whanau equally to be honest![]()

He gave me plenty of entertainment over the years so a big thank you to the man and I'm glad he's retiring in one piece.
Never too old to Rock n Roll.

I've got miserly tourettes and I don't give a fuck.
Always sad to see our best retire It has been said Rossi is over the hill at 34 ! and whats Andrew 41 ?? Good luck to him.
Certainly going to be easier for others to get a title now.
I think its great to see him retire on his own terms and in one piece. Better than some potential alternatives.
I wish him all the best.
Yeah definitely a legend in both sports and big ups for the entertainment he has provided over the years.
"Sorry Officer, umm.... my yellow power band got stuck wide open"
The Strouds are simply AWESOME!
Andrew is the perfect ambassador for our sport.
I wish more of us were like him. We'd be better represented in the media if we were.
Thanks for giving us those nail biting races, and for putting our sport/country on the map.
Best of luck for the future mate.
Scrivy.
P.S. I reckon he had to thrown it in, as if he won another title, he wouldn't be able to buy a vehicle big enough for the extra family..........
Is it still beastiality if ya fuck a frozen chicken??
He'll be back...
After a few months sitting on the couch, muttering "10 kids, 9 titles" the inequality of it will get to him, and a couple of quick phone calls later...![]()
All the best Andrew and thanks for the memories.
"...New Zealanders, for all their faults, have virtues that are precious: an unwillingness to be intimidated by the new, the formidable, or class systems; trust in situations where there would otherwise be none; compassion for the underdog; a sense of responsibility for people in difficulty; not undertaking to do something without seeing it through - "

Good call by Mr Stroud. His skill level and experience, but most of all his consistancy made him very hard to be beaten by any New Zealanders. His achievements over his career make him in my books the best racer we have ever produced. Now I will brace myself to be challenged by the Anderson, Anstey, Newcombe, or whatever people.
Cheers Andrew for all the great races and all the best for the future.
Bring on Mr Gixerracer...
