Video of the man who schooled everyone how to ride in sand at the MXDN.
Turn down the sound and enjoy his qualifying lap. ;D

If you don't fall off you are not going hard enough

I was also very impressed by Jeffrey Herlings. He couldn't beat Cairoli but he could keep in in sight - on half the bike. All while showing everyone else how it's done.

As for the American team, well, they picked the Champions and the most popular riders. That usually wins it for us but the tracks are usually not "specialized" tracks. For Belgium, it is all sand - like Florida. Eli Tomac (trains with Tichnor in Florida, Zack Osbourne (races the World Championship - US will get him next year) is coming on strong often top 3 qualifier, and even Bubba would have been a better choice. Bubba can ride him some sand! It fits his balls out riding style.

My Congrats to Germany winning their first and to Cairoli for showing us how it's done.

this race was specifically designed for the US to lose. and it accomplished that.

I being an american would've loved to see the US win again. Now, i'm not making excuses for our team, BUT seeing as how every one of our riders fell multiple times, i am very surprised we didn't do worse.

But i bet now you won't see cairoli or herlings come over to the US and race. THAT is a fact. They wouldn't want to run top 10 or mid pack, they'd want to be up front. Which, sadly wouldn't happen in america.

Pull your head out of your arse, it's attitudes like yours that make the rest of the world dislike america.

Why? Because our tracks are packed to point of being as hard as asphalt?

Bullshit.
Motocross is all about racing on ANY surface.
Do you think you are the only guys that dont race on sand.?
You and everyone else got beaten by a better team. Nothing more and nothing less.
It must be incredably hard getting the American ego through door ways. :-X

sorry? but please tell me what my riding has to do with the fastest racers in the world?

i'm a firm believer of you are only as good as your last race, and yes, we got 3rd. WHICH MEANS that we (the US motocross team, not me/my friends riding for fun) are currently 3rd best in the world.

you are arm chair quarterbacking is all, making un educated assumptions about their riding when you can barely get out of your own way. its stupid  for someone make these predictions of where they will finnish when in reallity every time a euro comes across the pond they do well, hardly mid pack two smoke. do some research and a self analysis and get back to us.
