Please ask the powers to be at Honda to send you over to represent your country at MXoN. While you are there beg for Cole to come with you. You two and Zach have a great chance to bring this home for us!

or those two and Jmart on a 250. Give an entire brand the gig.

Great idea, since JMart is not only having the best season of his career so far, but also has plenty of experience racing at Matterly Basin. Oh wait that's Zach Osborne I'm thinking of. Whistling

Bogle = no team
Peick = Can't buy a start this season plus new bike to figure out for the season.

That's a bad team. No offense to those guys but... just no. How the hell do you leave Osborne out anyways? That's just adds to the horibleness of the team.

I think a lot of people will be watching Cooper Webb this weekend in New York.

JMart 450 is our best option. Maybe our second best option period

x100, but leave Cole behind. We don't need guys going over who are known for pulling out of series with pinky issues, or getting moved out of the way on the white flag lap for a podium position when granted a 2 minute head start (Daytona, dunge incident)

Why not just send the top two American 450 riders who are willing to go, and the top American 250 rider who is willing to go.

Lets not over think this...

I read on racerx that Anderson Webb and plessinger were all out bc of an injury or survey needed at the end of the season. Whether that's fact or hearsay I don't know.

Sounds good to me! (Assuming the points don't change before the end of the season.)

Your brain workin today? You think I wanna put any of those dudes on a 250?

I was saying that there are better options available than Craig in my opinion.

There won't be a Factory HRC 450 available for Craig for MXdN. Roczen will be using it Whistling

He broke his pinky in half.

Except I'm trying to make it financial feasible for MXDN to actually happen. This isnt fantasy MX its an extremely expensive race for a manufacture to send one bike. If a manufacture got all three spots the cost per spot drops as they dont need as much stuff. Maybe I am on planet crazy?

I don't think Decoster will pick Bogle but I'd love to see it
Kind of like the guy ever since he made the switch to 450s

I get your mindset... but this isn't Team Puerto Rico, and we don't bundle our riders in an effort to save money as if it was a cable TV & internet package. We send our best riders to MXdN, period. Plus, KTM/Husky is basically printing money it seems. I'm sure Bobby Hewitt wants to send Zach just as badly as Zach wants to be there, and I'd imagine Husky has no issues with helping on the costs where needed. (didn't mean to be a dick, by the way lol. all good.. cheers man)

Maybe zo needs to step up to the 450. He is actually pretty impressive on one.

Cooper Webb deserves to go again, not so much for his results this season, but for making such a valiant effort last year.

If he or another 450 rider isn't healthy put jmart on one, or plessinger. He is an exceptional mud rider so he will do great at matter basin if he isn't underpowered.

Then take your pick of the 250 field,
Amart, savatgy, ac,

Heck, I even think covington deserves a serious look.

Jmart, Osbourne, and Savatgy. That's a winning team, especially with Marv not riding for the defending champs. A little unorthodox sending a team of 250 guys, but Jmart killed it on the 450 the one time he got a chance. Joey and Zach are by far the best 250 guys right now.
