well congrats to the NZ riders anyway, its just the way the cookie crumbled and thats racing.
BT did well to have the third fastest time in practise anyways.

[NordieBoy]

But we had the cookies who crumbled

Need to have it like the rugby.
The top guys sit out the first 12 weeks of the season

And make them race wrapped in cotton wool for the rest of the season.

GWS Josh, Ben, Cody...

and Danger, i think you are right, who needs a 450, when the fastest rider in the world rides a 250F,

[Danger]

And lets not forget the man that pushed him into being that fastest rider this year. Without Ben providing the competition RV would probably not have lifted his game so much this season.

Anyone who dosn't ride their bike on the limiter for the whole race?

100% correct

I heard a conversation with Bones (pro Circuit Suspension Guru) he had never done so much work during the season, but this year both BT and RV kept going faster and faster and both wanting to test more and more to gain an advantage that he had been flat out all season testing new setups,

[Danger]

And it looks like Cody didn't bother with racing in the B Series?

Little point I spose!


Yeah. Bring on next year. The Kiwis had the goods - but not the luck (or the timing). And there is ALWAYS a fair bit of luck reqd.

Next year they will still have the goods.
