2018 Silly Season Discussion
We always have a MX and SX discussion, time for a silly season one.
Surprise to see Martin go to Suzuki... interested in seeing how he does on it. Also seen that Taft got an AUS SX ride with Penrite!

Webb to Red Bull KTM with Marvin. Guess Alex either got paid or he just is constantly "almost" there, just sacking behind.

He's surely going to be impressed with that RMZ engine after all his time on the KTM!

Re: 2018 Silly Season Discussion
Only reason he left KTM was due to them having too many riders and all the others still being in contract, Alex unfortunately just pulled the short straw as his contract was the only one ending this year. TLD team for next year - Smith, Cantrell, Falk, McElrath and then Drake is meant to go pro at dilla next year. Then the same with Brown the year after. Big problem when you are wanting to develop younger riders but also go for championships.
Webb to KTM I just don't get hasn't shown any speed like he did on his 250. IMO a lot more riders out there who deserves a factory ride over Webb.

Re: 2018 Silly Season Discussion
Soubeyras is talking with teams to ride in US on a 450 next year like he did this year, not sure which teams tho but could probably be HEP since he end up the season with them this year

Also think Webb lacks some speed. Was blazing fast on 250's, but never really seem to do well on the big bikes when he moved up. But then need a 2nd tier rider that has a lot of potential to get better too, in that sense, Webb is a good choice.

Re: 2018 Silly Season Discussion
Weird to think that Bogle's injuries have set him back this far, two years ago he was riding extremely well on a honda. I'm interested to see if Mellross signs with cycle trader. I question the kawi move with joey but maybe he has showed he is a 450 rider with a high ceiling, personally would take mookie or bogle over him (250 title winners) Webb to ktm is smart, worst case you get a consistent top 5 rider, best case you get a dominant indoor and outdoor rider. Chad on a suzuki interests me, if he trains he will probably be top 7 but i doubt he gets the deal as he is getting old, plus webb could take the spot which could explain jgr not resigning bogle.

Re: 2018 Silly Season Discussion
Joey is a on a 1 year deal before AC moves up. Webb isn't even a consistent top 5 rider atm. JGR would love to have Reed especially if he is top 7 every week. Problem is nowadays publicity that is all sponsors want. Chad Reed will get the longest autograph line and I bet you he will get at least one mention every week because he is Reed. Sponsor will love that without a doubt.mack| spokes wrote:Weird to think that Bogle's injuries have set him back this far, two years ago he was riding extremely well on a honda.

Bogle needs to get a good solid year without crashing, doesn't matter what team he goes to. Just like Deano did, if he gets a solid year in he will get a factory ride without a doubt.
He was signed to just do the over sea races here in Europe. Not sure how he has been getting on.Wahlamt wrote:Is M.Stew gonna race more?
If his MCR deal works out he will be at every round in SX.
