I went to some of the GPs at Unadilla in the late 80s. That place was as wild as hell on Sunday, but not so much any more. Now, you can take the wife and kids along.

When it's in the 90s, I wear my vented riding pants, boots, open face helmet, gloves, but no jacket. If I can't be somewhat comfortable, I'm not going to bother riding.

Between the two Ryans, I gotta go with Villopoto. He was faster throughout the SX season,and that will carry over to the nationals. I think RV is just a more aggressive rider.
