    have not looked though the sky list yet but i see its on the same network in the states so thats a good thing,

    our ESPN is just run off australia's, so while Reed (now Kawasaki mounted yay) is still racing it should still keep playing there,

    can;t see any beating RV for the title tho, Stewart did show he can run with him at the monster cup tho

    MIllsaps and Canard have been injured this week as well, Canard broke an arm so will likely miss a couple of rounds at least, and Millsaps is said to have done a knee, but he might tuff it out, Tedesco is said to be the back up rider for him,

    I think Bubba will challenge early on, but by around round 5 he'll be injured, my take is he was running fast at the MEC, but a lot of that was a single jump he took a risk few other dared, but the rest of the track he looked slower & more on the ragged edge.

    I dunno, I think Eli & Rozcen will give RV a run for his money, sounds like KTM have got an additional brace on the frame which they are claiming makes a real difference to for the 2014, so Dungey is likely to also be up there.

    Losign Davi & Troy this early is a shame for them, it's pretty close to the opening to get injured, it'd be gutting for them both.

    KTM have made another special edition so they can run a new frame for the factory boys, shame they can't get it right the first time like the japs aye (just joking don't get upset, last years Honda was not loved by many top SX riders)

    i would not be surprised to see Eli and Ken win a round or 2, but i don't think they will be in the title chase,

    I think your right about Bubba, I think it will come down to the two Ryan's again, and I think Villopoto has pulled away in speed a bit last year tho,

    Be interesting to see if Reed gets back to where he was in 2012, challanging for wins, as last year he was just a top 5 guy on his good nights, and especially in the outdoors he was no where near the top 5

    Generally not one to listen to rumour, but I heard a rumour JS sustained a nasty head injury when he crashed in the Las Vegas final of '11 SX season, which really affected his balance (heard stories of him randomly falling over in the pits during the '12 season). It was supposedly kept quiet from the media, no idea if it's true, but was apparently why he's crashed so regularly since, as he is still having some issues.

    he has crashed a lot before that as well, but an interesting rumor none the less, would find it hard to believe he was falling over in the pits and still allowed to ride by his family and team tho,

    As with most rumours, if it has any merit, it will have been exaggerated, I'm sure. It was along the lines of it being an occassional issue with random dizzy spells and JS insisted for the most part he was fine. There were only a few people outside his team that "knew" and their opinion was he shouldn't be anywhere near a dirt bike, but it he insisted and those around him reluctantly allowed him to continue racing.

    But, of course, it is a rumour and it could be complete bollocks

    I think ktm have come along way since everts joined and I think now you'll really see the benefits of decoster as he moves ktm from catchup to pushing things , I think he had a huge job and I do wonder if rd was hanging back a bit and whether the frame tweak might just be enough to let him let loose. Certainly didn't sound like Broxy loved the ktm frame and as far as I know it's the same 250/450.

    Good call on Eli/ken.

    Cr, now that's interesting, seems to me a confidence rider and that kx450 is a very polished bike, my recollection is no real changes to rv bike since 2012, lots of evolution In there mind you.

    Kinda feels like rv/rd/et/cr/kr but a long season and be a great season to get to watch a race.

    Torrent link for the 2014 preview show

    Site is NSFW, a few dodgy ads on the sidebars.
