moyer is 58 ricky johnson is 50 and if you noticed ricky johnson did the same thing as moyer got out of supercross before he got hurt and some guys are not in in for the glamour or the money they are in it for the sport and I would say moyer is not doing all that bad either to each is own

Smh...I give up. The whole point behind me even saying anything about Reed is he will be retired long before Moyer and probably even Moyer Jr. He will be set better than both of them combined til the day he dies. You just want to throw out these stupid facts and comments out that you think make you look smart but doesn't at all. The goal in most people's life's are retire early enough and live an easy life after. Reed will retired by the time he's 40 and won't have a thing to worry about money wise, his kids won't either. I don't see any late model racer retiring early enough and have the kind of jack these pro bike racers have. Yea they live a hard and dangerous life, but so do most racers. Pro bike racers don't live it for near as long and actually have a life after....just like Johnson.

Thanks HH. I really didn't know who this guy is. We don't follow the motocross stuff. Probably should.Originally posted by High_Horse
What I don't understand is how those guys tuck their ears in their hats. That's gotta' get real uncomfortable in a short time.

CIRF you have recommended me to go to different races and events. If you ever get the chance to see a Supercross race I suggest ya go. TV doesn't serve those guys justice. They'll hit 90' jumps out of corner with both feet off the pegs and one cheek off the seat. It's something to see...true skill. I love it.Originally posted by CIRF View PostThanks HH.

zyoung25, I sincerely respect your opinions and will seriously take your advice urging us to attend a Supercross event. Where and when would be the best venue to make an effort to attend? We would be able to attend a Supercross event in the Mississippi Valley region. By that I mean primarily in the Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Indiana as well as Michigan or Ohio. We don't get out to the Pacific West Coast as often as we used to so that might not be an option these days, however
A nephew of mine rode some motocross for a few years in his middle school days and we enjoyed watching that deal so we're not completely oblivious to the whole deal.

I went to Indy and St Louis last year. Going to Indy again this year with a group of friends. If you've never seen Lucas Oil Stadium it's a gear heads dreams. When you walk in there is cars every where. Has all breeds racing equipment hanging from the ceiling. Both places are nice though, I would go to Indy before St Louis just because of the setting.

We just might do the Indy date in March.
We have close friends who live very near The Speedway. We camp in their back yard for the Hoosier Hundred, The Night Before The 500 and the Indy 500 in May. They loosely follow the Supercross deal and said they might could get good tickets.
Problem is, we really don't know what are good seats. I would suspect that all the good ones are gone at this late date. I gotta' believe there are seats that are preferred and those that are just there to be sold to those who merely want to be in the building.
Also, does the crowd stand all the time that the racing is taking place like the half wit's that attend NASCAR Cup racing these days? People standing all day for no apparent reason is one of the main reasons we stopped going to NASCAR Cup races and we refuse to patronize venues that allow this.Last edited by CIRF; 02-04-2015, 11:29 AM.

We just ours about a week ago and we got decent seats. Last year we got them about 2 weeks before the show and we sat right behind the starting gate and about 17 rows from the bottom. You just don't wanna get too low or you won't be to see everything going on cuz the way the tracks are made. The crowds only stand when the action gets close or if a bad wreck happens in that area. No worse than being at a car race. We've never really had what ya could call a bad seat since we been going. We been going there now about 7 years. It's awesome.

When I get some tickets nailed down I'll let you know and you can coach me on the finer points of enjoying one of these events.
I spoke with our Indy friends and they are receptive to doing this deal.
We can kill 2 birds with one stone. Go hang with our good friends and hosts of our Memorial Day Weekend Indy area racing/camping trip and do a new and different racing experience.
