ISDE Day 5

[wfopete]

Even though Team U.S.A. is pretty much out of any trophy hunt. As of this posting Ryan Sipes is still bustin' it and in the top three in E2 and Grant Baylor in 4th (E2).  Can't wait to see Ryan on the grass track tomorrow. Maybe we need to source more ex-motocross riders for next year's ISDE?

However, bikes are so well built these days that the art of keeping your machine alive for 6 days is almost an afterthought.  If a bike does go down, it is often due to something a rider has no control over (like Thad Duvall's bike's electronic failure).  The bikes are so solid that you can ride as hard as you dare without fear of breaking the machine.  So in many respects, today it's all about the rider's ability to go fast and stay injury free. As witnessed by G. B.'s Jamie McCanney: https://youtu.be/uQh7NEh8zd0

Go U.S.A.!
