What's that saying about 'you can never go home...'?
Like this is the racing, no?

Maybe the pace/safety car will keep him from getting injured.

It's not a safety car, it's a safety bike! Hey, wait a minute... Buell's out of business. Guess they have to go back to the safety car. Probably will be a Yugo with Edmondson driving. [bang] [laugh] Hope Hopper stays out of it's way. [moto]

You want irony?  I watched Faster again the other day.  Remember when John Ulrich says that John Hopkins might be the second coming of Kevin Schwantz??

I wonder if he never got a chance to really shine (injuries, uncompetitive rides, etc.), or if he's just not alien material?

You've seen him smile. You're sure those things are made of this Earth?

If only his riding ability were as special.

Nope...

he's a professional rider.

I'm an amateur keyboard jockey.

He still will never beat the fab four...that's all this bs is about...not whether we can keep up with him.

I did once, I cut underneath him at Goddards and pipped him by wheel at the line. Then I woke up and ate a hearty breakfast. [coffee]
