Called that. The whole grind for him was so stressful. The day you (DHDS01) caught him for an autograph he was having an internal meltdown episode. So much stress. I wouldn't hold that day to his entire character.
Thinking about it....I'd say he's better than Carmicaels and RV. I bet I wouldn't even be on an Austrian motorcycle if it weren't for his dominance. It got me to look past Japan. Before it was "eh KTMs are junk." But looking how Ktm stepped their game up and secured the best rider of all time....makes it easier To give $8k to Austria instead of $7k to Japan.
Dudes a legend. And I feel honored to have lined up next to the kid in amateurs. When nobody ever thought Ryan dungey would be where he is today. We all thought it was gonna be millsapps and alessi....
