    2013 Supercross season

    What a season so far! Who'd have thought Millsaps would be leading the points? What's up with Villopoto this year, why is his performance not up to par?
    I know Dungey switched to KTM and they had the air shock issues but man one year has seen a lot of changes. And Barcia is lookin' good too.
    Did Suzuki come out with a new killer bike or is Millsaps just kickin' butt?
    Plus what's with all the top riders having traction problems?

    If Tomac and Roczen move to 450 next season it should be another exciting year.


    On a somewhat related note, here's a vid and a cool pic of my niece's boyfriend on his bike.

    Millsaps personal training facility is about 5 miles from my house. He really does a lot with the youth riders. Passed by about 2 weeks ago and there must have been 20 youth riders on his big track practicing! Good guy that supports the sport all year.

    Great season so far. Big fan of Barcia here. His dad is good friends with a friend of mine and they used to come down and hang out when we were ice racing when he was about 9 or 10. Used to go watch him race as a little kid on the local MX tracks. It's nice to see him getting success after all the hard work and sacrifices his family made. Still down to earth too. Always takes time out when my buddies go up to watch MX at Unadilla to meet with them and takes time to talk to their kids. I think the MX guys are some of the most down to earth sports figures you'll ever find. One of the reasons I got a DVR was because I can't stay up for those West Coast races.

    I was hoping Millsaps would have been able to keep the lead for a little longer this season. He has ridden great though. Villopoto has been showing just how fast he really is. Seems like he can turn it up a level when needed, and has found his groove. It is time for Reed to turn the reigns over to a younger, more physically able rider to push his team to the top. Would be cool to see him sign Tomac for the '14 season in 450.

    yeah, seems once Villopoto's mechanic went back to a regular shock, instead of that air shock, he found his speed. It would be cool to see Tomac on a 450 next season or the season after. Is Tomac's father the legendary mountain bike racer?

    Yep, same Tomac. The kid is supposed to be in rediculous shape.

    Air shock doesnt seem to be woking out very well. Good to see Dungey get by Potto and Ole 22 looked great in his heat race.
