What is the latest for Reedys plans in '18?
RC commented he and CR22 will be on 2strokes in Aus and that he will get a deal but it will be very late..
Is he not signed so he can race the YZ in Aus??

Maybe so but Reed is still deserving of a Factory ride. The guy still has a huge following, big autograph lines and he's a marketing genius.

He might not be battling for a championship but he's still a relevant figure in the sport.

He'll land somewhere. Not worried about that.

Agreed but who is willing to support him? Does he have to pay everything out of his own pocket like 2011 all over is he willing too ??

I don't know where he'll land but I don't think he'll be paying anything out of pocket. Wherever he goes money follows (Monster).

Could Discount Tire end up as an additional sponsor wherever he lands? Possibly. No idea how that relationship ended.

Been a long time Reed fan so I'm looking forward to see where he goes in 2018.

That's the one he built. Still missing a chain and Bridgestone stickers on the fork guards. Also didn't have ARC lever/clutch back in '04.

Not lookin good ,all it looks like is he's been doing the odd moto on his outdoor track his super x track looks like old McDonald s farm. Quickly fixed though... 20 odd days til the cup and he has no ride and I think not really training properly .. If he gets something going nex few weeks he would be lucky to get a 8th and prob be lapped if the race was long enough. He is sooooo out of the loop right now . Even Roczen is riding and training harder after his horrific injury.. I hope for the best but geez it's not looking good.

He could just get the steel frame KTM 250sx into a main event. That would be kool.
